Evaporation of Boiling Cold Liquid Pool
The following equation is for predicting the rate at which liquid evaporates from the surface of a pool of cold liquid (i.e., at a liquid temperature of about 0 °C or less).
| where: | |
| E | = evaporation flux, (kg/min)/m² of pool surface |
|---|---|
| B | = pool liquid atmospheric boiling point, °C |
| M | = pool liquid molecular weight, dimensionless |
| e | = the base of the natural logarithm system = 2.7183 |
