Description

Calculate the temperature (deg. K) of saturated air at pressure p (in mb) and with mixing ratio w (in g/kg). The vapor pressure e is calculated using Note 2 of the Herzegh memo. The formula for the temperature was derived from Note 6 by substituting a two term Taylor series expansion for the ln(T_3/T) term and solving for T.

Formula

$$ e = \frac {pw} {1000 \epsilon + w} \\ T_{3} = 273.15 \\ A = 5.0065 \\ B = 19.83923 \\ E_{3} = 6.1078 \\ t_{mr} = \frac {T_{3}A} {A - B + \sqrt{B^{2} + 2Aln(\frac {E_{3}} {e})}} $$
