| Zusammenfassung: | This paper describes a rapid response microwave hygrometer for continuously recording the water vapor pressure of atmospheric air over a wide ambient range. The principle employed involves the measurement by means of a cavity resonator of the contribution of water vapor to the refractive index of atmospheric air. The device described also has potential application to the continuous measurement of the degree of contamination of one gas (or of gas mixtures) by another gas (or gases). |
