Evaporation

What is Evaporation and how does it affect drying when recovering from a water loss?

We always want to remove as much water as possible in flood situation. One way is through Evaporation.all the standing water has been removed but there is moisture in material and air, this is when we want to increase evaporation to speed the drying process.

Evaporation will increase when
  • Wet materials are made warmer.
  • When drier air is used, and
  • When air is moved more rapidly across the wet surface.
This is when you will see us place air movers and dehumidifiers, being that when water is evaporated , the water vapor is removed by dehumidification or ventilation.
