Study on Evaporation from a Free Water Surface Using Laser Absorption Spectroscopy
Evaporation is ubiquitous in nature and engineering. The direct measurements of vapor transport during evaporation are of great importance. A tunable diode laser emitting at around 1370 nm is used to in situ detect the water evaporation from a free water surface subject to crossing wind at various velocities. Results show that the observed profiles of water vapor partial pressure agree with the prediction of the similarity principle, with overall deviation less than 4%.
