Arjen Markus (4 may 2006) It occurred to me that we do not yet have a decent module in Tcllib yet that collects the various physical empirical formulae. So, right now, if I want to compute the water content of air, I have to hunt the Internet for the right formula. Similarly, the density of water as a function of temperature and salinity.
I am probably not the only one with that little problem, so I propose to collect such formulae here (with a reference) so that later we can simply wrap them up in a package/module for Tcllib.
A formula for the humidity content of air:
set vapordens [expr {5.018+0.32321*$td+8.1847e-3*$td*$td+3.1243e-4*$td*$td*$td}]Symbols:
