pv=60.1201Bar

Partial Pressure of Water Vapor Formula Elements

Variables
Pressure of Water Vapor
Pressure of Water Vapor is the pressure exerted by the water vapor in the moist air or the mixture of dry air and water vapor.
Symbol: pv
Measurement: PressureUnit: Bar
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Saturation Pressure Corresponding to WBT
Saturation Pressure Corresponding to WBT (Wet Bulb Temperature) is the pressure that can be found from the steam table corresponding to wet bulb temperature.
Symbol: pw
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 vapor which is equal to the sum of the respected pressures. It is also called barometric pressure.
Symbol: pt

FAQs on Partial Pressure of Water Vapor

What is the formula to find Partial Pressure of Water Vapor?
The formula of Partial Pressure of Water Vapor is expressed as Pressure of Water Vapor = Saturation Pressure Corresponding to WBT-((Total Pressure of Moist Air-Saturation Pressure Corresponding to WBT)*(Dry Bulb Temperature in °C-Wet Bulb Temperature))/(1544-1.44*Wet Bulb Temperature). Here is an example- 0.002063 = 20000000-((10000000-20000000)*(110-753))/(1544-1.44*753).
How to calculate Partial Pressure of Water Vapor?
With Saturation Pressure Corresponding to WBT (pw), Total Pressure of Moist Air (pt), Dry Bulb Temperature in °C (tdb) & Wet Bulb Temperature (Tw) we can find Partial Pressure of Water Vapor using the formula - Pressure of Water Vapor = Saturation Pressure Corresponding to WBT-((Total Pressure of Moist Air-Saturation Pressure Corresponding to WBT)*(Dry Bulb Temperature in °C-Wet Bulb Temperature))/(1544-1.44*Wet Bulb Temperature).
Can the Partial Pressure of Water Vapor be negative?
Yes, the Partial Pressure of Water Vapor, measured in Pressure can be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Partial Pressure of Water Vapor?
Partial Pressure of Water Vapor is usually measured using the Bar[Bar] for Pressure. Pascal[Bar], Kilopascal[Bar], Pound Per Square Inch[Bar] are the few other units in which Partial Pressure of Water Vapor can be measured.
