| Notes | Generalized equation of evaporation rate from a liquid pool by using liquid factors. See U.S. EPA (1999), Equation 3-3 (section 3.2.2, page 3-5) and Equation 3-4 (section 3.2.2, page 3-6) for ambient and elevated temperature worst-case scenario equations, respectively. Alternative scenario versions are Equation 7-8 and 7-9 (section 7.2.3, page 7-11). |
