Mixing Ratio
The mixing ratio (mass of water vapour/mass of dry gas) is calculated
using:
w
w
p-P
P
Bx
kgg /
(3)
where
B = 621.9907 g/kg
The value of B depends on the gas. 621.9907 g/kg is valid for air.
Absolute Humidity
Absoute humidity is defined as the mass of water vapour in a certain
volume. If ideal gas behaviour is assumed the absolute humidity can be
calculated using:
15.273

where
C = 216.679 gK/J
Enthalpy
Entalpy can be calculated from mixing ratio using:
