Degree of Saturation given Partial Pressure of Water Vapour Formula Elements

Variables
Degree of Saturation
Degree of saturation is the ratio of the volume of water to the volume of voids.
Symbol: S
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Pressure of Water Vapor
Pressure of Water Vapor is the pressure exerted by the water vapour in the moist air or the mixture of dry air and water vapour.
Symbol: pv
Measurement: PressureUnit: Bar
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Partial Pressure of Water Vapour in Saturated Air
Partial pressure of water vapour in saturated air is obtained from the steam tables corresponding to dry bulb temperature.
Symbol: ps
Measurement: PressureUnit: Bar
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Total Pressure of Moist Air
Total Pressure of Moist Air is the pressure exerted by the mixture of air and water vapour which is equal to the sum of the respected pressures. It is also called barometric pressure.
Symbol: pt
Measurement: PressureUnit: Bar
