Institute for Atmospheric and Climate Science - IACETH Atmospheric Physics Lab Work Evaporation Abstract
Institute for Atmospheric and Climate Science - IACETH Atmospheric Physics Lab Work Evaporation Abstract In the first part of this experiment, the relationship between wind speed and evaporation is investigated. We measure the evaporation under idealized conditions using a small wind tunnel. We then compare our results from the experiment with calculated values for the evaporation over the sea. In the second part of the experiment, we have a look at the wind chill effect. We demonstrate the influence of different wind velocities on the cooling rate. Questions to be answered during the reading of the manual (Will be discussed in a small tutorial ahead of the experiment) Evaporation: - What do you expect for the evaporation for increasing wind velocities? - What should you get for the global evaporation/precipitation? Wind Chill Effect: - Is there a wind chill effect if the body has the same temperature as the environment? Evaporation Table of Contents 1. Equipment......
