External Resistance to Water Vapor Transfer

Description

The function estimate external resistance to water vapor transfer using the Lewis rule relating heat and mass transport \insertCiteSpotila1992TrenchR

Usage

external_resistance_to_water_vapor_transfer(H, ecp = 12000)

Arguments

H	numeric heat transfer (convection) coefficient (W m-2 K-1).
ecp	numeric aggregate parameter (J m-3 K-1) that is the product of the density of air (kg m-3) and the specific heat of air at constant pressure (J kg-1 K-1). Default of 12000 (J m-3 K-1) commonly assumed.

Value

numeric external resistance to water vapor transfer (s m^-1).
