Solver Description

Model convective evaporation rates of water pools or droplets and air humidification kinetics.

Key Numerical Methods & Architecture

  • Input Redirection: Reads parameters sequentially from standard input (`stdin`) using Fortran sequential read (`read(*,*)`), ensuring modular integration.
  • Modular Design: Formulated using pure mathematical routines, separation of equations from output formatting, and precise numerical solvers (e.g. bisection, Newton-Raphson).
  • Standard Compliant: Written in clean, standards-compliant Fortran 90 to ensure cross-compiler compatibility.
