Calculate Water Vapour Pressure

About Water Vapour Pressure

Water vapour pressure is the pressure exerted by water vapour in equilibrium with liquid water at a given temperature. It's crucial in meteorology, HVAC, and industrial processes.

Antoine Equation:

log₁₀(P) = A - B/(C + T)

Magnus Formula:

P = 6.112 × exp((A × T)/(B + T))

Buck Formula:

P = A × exp((B - T/C) × T/(D + T))

Where:

  • P = Vapour pressure (kPa)
  • T = Temperature (°C)
  • A, B, C, D = Empirical constants

Temperature Range:

• Antoine: 1-100°C
• Magnus: 0-50°C
• Buck: -40 to 50°C

Applications:

• Humidity calculations
• Weather forecasting
• HVAC design
• Industrial drying

Water vapour pressure is fundamental in understanding atmospheric processes, humidity control, and phase transitions.
