Temperature and Pressure Calculations

The specific volume 'v' can be calculated using Equation (26) provided in the content.

Saturation temperatures indicate the temperature at which air can hold the maximum amount of moisture, while dew-point temperatures represent the temperature at which moisture begins to condense.

Specific enthalpy 'h' can be derived using Equation (30) referenced in the content.
