Define dew point?

Dew Point: Is the temperature at which gas condenses into a liquid.


What occurs when the temperature of a saturated gas drops to its dew point?

it condenses


The temperature at which water condenses is called what?

The vaporization temperature (liquid to gas) is the same temperature as the condensation temperature (gas to liquid). In advanced engineering this may not be technically true however, since the condensation temperature can be significantly lower than the vaporization temperature in very controlled circumstances (subcooled gases, subcooled liquids).


What is acidic dew point?

The dew point of H2SO4 in a flue gas varies according to the concentration of H2SO4 in that flue gas.the more is the conc. the higher will be dew point. Normally it varies b/w 137-160C.


Does the form water take depend on the gas in it?

No. The form of water depends on the temperature, and to a smaller degree, the dew point.


What is bubble point and dew point in petroleum?

Bubble point is the pressure at which the first gas bubble forms in a liquid mixture, while dew point is the temperature at which the first liquid droplet forms in a gas mixture. In petroleum refining, these points are important in determining the phase behavior of hydrocarbon mixtures and can help optimize processes like distillation and separation.


What is condensation temperature of propane?

Dew point is specified for a given concentration of water in atmosphere.


The is the temperature at which water in the air changes from a gas to a liquid?

The greater the air temperature, the more moisture can be absorbed, which is why humidity is referred to as "relative humidity". The "dew point" or the point where the moisture condenses out of the air varies.


What happens if the air temperature reaches the dew point temperature?

At temperatures below the dew point there is less evaporation than condensation. Drops and droplets condense and grow. At temperatures above the dew point there is more evaporation than condensation, drops and droplets evaporate.


Is frost solid?

Frost is water vapour, or water in gas form that when freezes, becomes a solid. Frost forms when the outside temperature cools past the dew point. The dew point is the point where the dew gets so cold, the water vapour in the atmosphere turns into liquid and if cold enough the liquid freezes


ASTM for shaw dew point meter?

The ASTM standard relevant to Shaw dew point meters is ASTM D1143, which covers the procedure for estimating the dew point temperature of a constant-volume, open-cup apparatus. This standard provides guidelines for the test method and apparatus used to determine the dew point temperature of a gas. Make sure to check the specific version of the standard for the most accurate and up-to-date information.


The blank is the temperature at which water in air changes from a gas to a liquid?

The term you're looking for is "dew point." This is the temperature at which the air reaches saturation and water vapor begins to condense into liquid water.
