Rashed,<br>The one I'm thinking of is heat of vaporization, Lv = 2.5 x 10^6 J/Kg. I'm not sure if you can or should use others, though.<br><br>Jeff<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Dec 7, 2010 at 8:16 PM, Rashed Mahmood <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:rashidcomsis@gmail.com">rashidcomsis@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div> </div>
<div>Thanks,,it surely helps...</div>
<div>For further confirmation:</div>
<div>heat of phase change= 2257 kJ/kg ?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>and the final units would be kJ/kg ?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>is that correct?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks again</div>

<br>'define dse = gravity*height + Cp*T' (for dry static energy)<br>'define mse = dse + L*q' (for moist static energy)<br><br>where "gravity" and "height" represent variables for the gravitational constant (9.8 m/s2) and geopotential height, Cp = 1005 J/Kg*K is the heat constant for dry air at constant pressure, T is temperature (in K), L is heat of phase change (generally vaporization), and q is moisture quantity (mixing ratio). <br>
<br>Hope this helps.<br><br>Jeff Duda<br><br>

<div>Hi all</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Did anyone calculate moist static energy and/or dry static energy.</div>
<div>If yes, can you please share the script(s) related to it.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks</div>
