Adiabats

Take a look at the wiki to see the differences between the wet and dry adiabats ❋ EliRabett (2010)

Moist adiabats are much more complicated than the dry adiabat. ❋ Unknown (2007)

If I assume that the slower increase in surface temperature compared to the increase at high altitudes of wet adiabats actually reflect increased latent heat transfer, then I get an exponential increase of latent heat transfer from water vapor with temperature. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Look at the moist adiabats chart I posted in #227 in this thread. ❋ Unknown (2007)

At high altitudes, especially where the moist adiabats approach the lapse rate of a dry adiabat, the temperature difference increases with temperature. ❋ Unknown (2007)

This is PNAS after all; I guess that they would have had at least one reviewer who knows what you can and cannot do with adiabats. ❋ Unknown (2006)

I haven’t done any programming in a long time and I’m having some problems setting up to do a finite difference calculation of moist adiabats using equation 3.74 on this page of R. ❋ Unknown (2007)

My [hot pants] were adiabatic on [the straight] boy until he had a few [drinks] in him. ;) ❋ Dustin Belleau (2003)

For comparison, and to determine adiabaticity of [the heat] [exchanger], Q was also found based upon [the cold] water. ❋ Group7L01 (2007)
