We have developed an analytical model for evaporative cooling [1]. By simulating evaporation as a sequence of discrete steps, we could predict the time dependence of all important parameters such as temperature, density, elastic collision rate. By incorporating trap loss due to background gas collisions into our model we derived the threshold conditions for “run-away” evaporation. This is chara...

Water-cycle algorithm based on evaporation rate (ErWCA) is a powerful enhanced version of the water-cycle (WCA) metaheuristics algorithm. ErWCA, like other algorithms, may still fall in sub-optimal region and have slow convergence, especially high-dimensional tasks problems. This paper suggests an ErWCA (EErWCA) version, which embeds local escaping operator (LEO) as internal updating process. a...

Evaporation estimates are often used in water balance calculations to determine seepage rates from feedyard holding ponds and lagoons. These estimates have been made using empirical equations derived for clear water, Class A Pan evaporation measurements using clear water, and rule-of-thumb estimates. However, feedyard effluent has different physical and chemical characteristics than clear water...

Establishing satisfactory estimation methods of lake evaporation has been crucial vital for research and management of water resources and ecosystems. Determining the accurate method to estimate evaporation from reservoirs in the investigation and management of water resources is very important. Hence, in this study eight empirical methods such as; Makkink, DeBruin-Kejiman, Penman, Priestley-Ta...
