(B) For the “mixing ratio” measurement
Assuming that the mixing ratio is r kg/kg, then “r” can be calculated from the value of
H
2
O vol% as follows:
r = 0.622 3 x/(100 – x) …………… Equation (4)
From the above equations (1), (2) and (4), we obtain:
E = -K log y/a = -K log {0.622 3 21/(0.622 + r)/21}
= -K log 0.622/(0.622 + r) … …… Equation (5)
where, K = Constant
With Equation (5), we can obtain the mixing ratio r kg/kg from the electromotive force.
