Working Principle

The saturation vapor pressure of water at a given temperature can be calculated using the Antoine equation:

P = 10A * exp((B * T) / (C + T))

Where:

  • P = Saturation Vapor Pressure (mmHg)
  • T = Temperature (°C)
  • A, B, C = Antoine equation constants specific to the substance (in this case, water)

This calculator uses the default constants for water, which are valid for a temperature range of -50°C to 100°C.

Applications

The saturation vapor pressure is an important parameter in meteorology, climate science, and engineering. It is used to:

  • Calculate humidity and dew point
  • Model atmospheric processes
  • Determine boiling points at different pressures
  • Design HVAC systems
