Absorption and solar radiation spectra

AI Thread Summary
The discussion seeks advice on locating absorption spectra for fresh water and ice across the UV to IR wavelength range, as well as the solar radiation spectrum at Earth's surface after atmospheric effects. The requester prefers tabular data over graphical representations. Suggestions for finding this information include searching through journal articles and online resources. One participant recommends using Google searches for further assistance. The inquiry highlights the need for specific scientific data related to water and solar radiation.

Hi,

I'm hoping someone can advise me on the best place to find the absorption spectra for water (fresh) and ice, for the wavelength range UV to IR. Also, I'm looking for the solar radiation spectrum at the surface of the Earth (i.e. after atmospheric effects have been taken into account).

It would be helpful, if possible, to get my hands on tabular figures rather than just graphical visualisations.

I realize that this information might be contained in journal articles and the like - that shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks in advance,

All I can suggest is to try some google searches. Beyond that I cannot help you, sorry!
 

Thread 'Condensate rate of water for an air conditioning cooling coil'

I need to calculate the amount of water condensed from a DX cooling coil per hour given the size of the expansion coil (the total condensing surface area), the incoming air temperature, the amount of air flow from the fan, the BTU capacity of the compressor and the incoming air humidity. There are lots of condenser calculators around but they all need the air flow and incoming and outgoing humidity and then give a total volume of condensed water but I need more than that. The size of the...

Thread 'Why work is PdV and not (P+dP)dV in an isothermal process?'

Let's say we have a cylinder of volume V1 with a frictionless movable piston and some gas trapped inside with pressure P1 and temperature T1. On top of the piston lay some small pebbles that add weight and essentially create the pressure P1. Also the system is inside a reservoir of water that keeps its temperature constant at T1. The system is in equilibrium at V1, P1, T1. Now let's say i put another very small pebble on top of the piston (0,00001kg) and after some seconds the system...
