Validation of Vapour / Water Production in a Thermoelectric Distillation System

In this study, mathematical calculations developed through water-vapour phase-change theory is used to interpret the processes involved in the fresh water production of a thermoelectric distillation system. The rate of water production depends on various parameters of vaporization phenomena such as water and vapour temperatures, pressure, specific volume, heat capacity and water-vapour surface ...

Vapour is the principal source of water imbibed by seeds in unsaturated soils

The assumption that seeds imbibe most of the water required for germination as liquid through seed-to-soil contact has been a dominant theme in germination research and seeding technology. Under most conditions, seeds are also exposed to water vapour during imbibition, but the relative contributions of liquid and vapour are difficult to assess. In water uptake models that include vapour, proced...

The humidification of anaesthetic gases: its importance and control.

THiS REV,EW studies the humidi ty output of anaesthet ic sys tems in common use and the steps taken to improve them. The amount of water vapour which an a tmosphere can hold varies with temperature . The warmer the ambient gas mixture, the more water vapour it can contain. There is a max imum amount of water vapour which the a tmosphere can maintain at each tempera ture when it becomes saturate...

Quantifying the water vapour feedback associated with post - Pinatubo global cooling

There is an ongoing important debate about the role of water vapour in climate change. Predictions of future climate change depend strongly on the magnitude of the water vapour feedback and until now models have almost exclusively been relied upon to quantify this feedback. In this work we employ observations of water vapour changes, together with detailed radiative calculations to estimate the...

Sciamachy Water Vapour Retrieval Using Amc-doas

Measurements of the SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY (SCIAMACHY) on ENVISAT have been used to derive global water vapour total column amounts over ocean and land. For this purpose, the Air Mass Corrected Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (AMC-DOAS) approach, which has already been successfully used with GOME data, has been applied to SCIAMACHY’s n...
