About this document
Heat Loss from Pond Evaporation by Miguel Murillo is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This article discusses heat loss from ponds used for aquaculture in geothermal direct use projects. The main mechanisms of heat loss are evaporation, convection, radiation, and conduction. Evaporation is usually the largest component of heat loss. The rate of evaporation depends on factors like air velocity, pond water temperature, and humidity. Convection also contributes significantly to heat loss and depends on wind velocity and the temperature difference between the air and water. Examples are provided
