Percent Saturation Calculator

Percent Saturation Calculator calculator can be used to calculate the percent saturation of water vapor in the air based on the partial pressure of water vapor and the total pressure.

Input Parameters

Calculation Results

Calculation Formula

Percent Saturation (%) = (Partial Pressure of Water Vapor / Total Pressure) * 100

Where:
Partial Pressure of Water Vapor: The partial pressure of water vapor in the air.
Total Pressure: The total pressure of the air.

How to Use the Percent Saturation Calculator

  1. Enter the partial pressure of water vapor in the air (mmHg) in the first input field.
  2. Enter the total pressure of the air (mmHg) in the second input field.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the percent saturation.
  4. The result will be displayed in the Percent Saturation (%) field.

Understanding Percent Saturation

Percent saturation is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a given temperature. It is expressed as a percentage.

The formula used to calculate percent saturation is:

Percent Saturation (%) = (Partial Pressure of Water Vapor / Total Pressure) * 100

This calculator helps you determine the percent saturation of water vapor in the air, which is useful in various fields such as meteorology, environmental science, and HVAC systems.
