  • temperatuur, milleni jahtudes õhus leiduv veeaur muutub küllastunud auruks
  • temperatuur, millele antud õhukogus tuleb jahutada pideval rõhul, et veeaur kondenseeruks veeks
  • temperature to which air must be cooled to become saturated with water vapor
  • temperature to which a given parcel of air must be cooled, at constant barometric pressure, for water vapor to condense into water
kastepunkt preferred
Usage examples
  • Kastepunkt sõltub õhu rõhust ja veesisaldusest ja kui õhk jahutatakse kastepunktist allapoole, väheneb selle niiskusmaht ja õhus olev veeaur kondenseerub, moodustades vedela vee, mida nimetatakse kasteks.
Good to know
  • Kastepunkt tekib tavaliselt õhu kokkupuutel külmema pinnaga ja sellele pinnale tekib kaste.

dew point preferred
Usage examples
  • Dew point depends on the pressure and water content of the air, and when the air is cooled below the dew point, its moisture capacity is reduced and airborne water vapor will condense to form liquid water known as dew.
Good to know
  • When this occurs through the air's contact with a colder surface, dew will form on that surface.
