Abstract

V originále

Vapour-pressure equations are often used in atmospheric applications. Also properties of water at temperatures below the triple point are needed for calculating saturation pressure in clouds, because clouds are often composed of deeply supercooled water. There are many equations used in meteorology that describe the saturation pressure of H2O also below the triple point. Most of them are based on the Clapeyron equation, because experimental data are not of high quality. Measurements are restricted to temperatures above approximately 235 K, which is the limit of homogenous nucleation. We have compared calculated values with the Wagner and Pruß equation, which also appears to be a very good approximation in the supercooled water range. We have used this equation as a standard equation for vapour pressure and added only a correction term for temperatures from 130 K to 255 K.

In Czech

Tlak syté páry je často používán v atmosférických aplikacích. Výzkum vlastností vody při teplotách pod trojným bodem je nutný pro výpočty tlaku v mracích, které jsou často tvořeny hluboce podchlazenou vodou. K dispozici je mnoho rovnic užívaných meteorology a sloužících k popisu tlaku syté vodní páry také pod trojným bodem. Experimentální data nejsou vysoké kvality, mnohé rovnice jsou založeny na Clausius-Clapeyronově rovnici. Měření jsou limitována hranicí homogenní nukleace. Srovnali jsme vypočítané hodnoty s Wagnerovou-Prussovou rovnicí, která je též doboru aproximací v podchlazené oblasti. Použili jsme tuto rovnici pro tlak syté páry a připojili korekční člen pro teploty od 130 K do 255 K.
