Excluding Temperature Dependency in Latent Heat of Evaporation

Post by Swami » Wed Nov 23, 2016 10:00 am -1100

Hello,

I can not find reference to this particular check box in the WUFI help; does anyone have an explanation for the choice "Excluding Temperature Dependency in Latent Heat of Evaporation"?

Thank you,

Hi Swami,

originally, WUFI used a constant number for the latent heat of evaporation (2500 kJ/kg). Later, the latent heat was made temperature-dependent, but you can switch back to the constant value by excluding the temperature dependence.
