Vapour-pressure deficit temperature, the relative humidity and, if possible, the canopy air temperature. We must then compute the saturation pressure. Saturation pressure can be looked up in a psychrometric chart or derived from the Arrhenius equation, a way to compute it directly from temperature is where: To convert between Rankine and degrees Fahrenheit: formula_10 We compute this pressure for both the ambient and canopy temperatures. We then can compute the actual partial pressure of the water vapour in the air by multiplying by the relative humidity [%]: and finally VPD using formula_12 or formula_13 when the canopy temperature is known. Vapour-pressure deficit
Condensation pots and pans whilst cooking. Air conditioning or ventilation systems can be installed that help remove moisture from the air, and move air throughout a building. The amount of water vapour that can be stored in the air can be increased simply by increasing the temperature. However, this can be a double edged sword as most condensation in the home occurs when warm, moisture heavy air comes into contact with a cool surface. As the air is cooled, it can no longer hold as much water vapour. This leads to deposition of water on the cool surface. This is very
