e = partial pressure of water vapour [Pa] p = air pressure [Pa] q = specific hmidity = 0.622 * e / (p - 0.378 *e) [kg/kg] rw= mass mixing ratio = 0.622 * e / (p - e) [kg/kg] T = temperature R* = universal gas constant = 8314.472 J K−1 mol−1 mw = molar mass of water vapour = 0.018015 kg/mol Rw = individual gas constant of water vapour = R*/mw = 461.53 J K−1 kg−1 ρw = water-vapour density = e/(T Rw) [kg/m3] TD = dewpoint temperature = {2.0798233·102 - 2.0156028·101 ln e + 4.6778925·10-1 (ln e)2 -9.2288067·10-6 (ln e)3 } / {1 - 1.3319669·10-1 ln e + 5.6577518·10-2 (ln e)2 - 7.5172865·10-5 (ln e)3 } [K] E = saturation vapour pressure = exp { 54.842763 - (6763.22 / T) - 4.21 * ln(T) + 0.000367 * T + tanh [ 0.0415 * (T - 218.8) ] * [ 53.878 - 1331.22 / T - 9.44523 * ln(T) + 0.014025 * T ] } [Pa] F = relative humidity = e/E |
