Steady-state power generation and effects on evaporative losses. a Energy fluxes, b evaporation rates, and c surface temperatures are calculated as a function of α(w,T s) for weather conditions of 200 W m−2 I, 16 °C T a, 101.3 kPa P, and 2.7 m s−1 (6 mph) u at 5 values of RH (mild conditions). d Maximum energy flux and e water saved from evaporation as a function of RH at cool (pale, 12 °C, 150 W m−2), mild (neutral, 16 °C, 200 W m−2), and warm (dark, 20 °C, 250 W m−2) weather conditions and three wind speeds: 1.8 (4 mph, solid), 2.7 (6 mph, dashed), and 3.6 m s−1 (8 mph, dotted)
