Also

where

= specific volume of saturated steam (volume of 1 lb.) at a given temperature, , Pressure
, = specific volume of air at the same pressure and temperature
= density of saturated steam in lb. per cu. ft. at temperature

But we have for air

[36]

Therefore

[37]

Hence, substituting in [34]

[38]

in. mercury = lb. per sq. ft.

Hence
