Jean,
Looking forward to "cleaning up the Gyzma"
Water Vapor Saturation Pressure.sm (20 KiB) downloaded 77 time(s).

Edit, Started playing with the CoolProp plugin ...

CoolProp_Props("P","T",80*'°F,"Q",0,"Water" )

gives tabular results that match the function playing with the temperature of 80*'°F in the NOT ice region (>32°F)

Interesting, World is SI [and derived SI]
4.1635019*10^0 = 4.1635019
Interesting the split range below triple point [0.01 °C]

Cheers Elsid .. see U

Yes, there is error because the original equations and constants are SI ... unit conversion and round off.

Copy and paste from the handbook ... Consistent since all other values have a power

Actually, it overlaps! I could not find a good way of using a single value, so I chose one. The documentation for both equations technically hit 32F.

The classical Water Vapor Saturation Pressure starts @ the Triple Point [ 0.01°C]
Advanced formulas up to the Critical Point.
From so I chose one, your formula may be completely zombie trying to overlap the ice region.
You should never/ever extrapolate a polynomial approximation outside of its designed range.
So, you have put something in Samples, something not doctored, that will confuse Smath Community.
Don't take it bad, just a remark.

Just posted a minute ago, you will find the ice region in "Samples Psychrometry'.

Jean,
As I mentioned, it comes from 2017 ASHRAE Fundamentals Handbook. Feel free to argue with them the use of polynomials . I cannot think of a way to capture 32 F from solid or liquid ... for engineering purposes, close enough; unless you have one of your magic programing loops .

Based on the polynomials, here is a snippet of the chart from the 2017 Fundamentals handbook @ 32F

Martin,
I'm responding to your response under the "bugs" blog here

Let the psi unit be psia and introduce an undefined unit psig with appropriate conversion functions.
This approach prevents you from mixing both types of pressure representations, because you would get a unit mismatch error.
It doesn't, however, prevent you from adding psig values, which might not be a good idea.

All in all this is a conversion very much like between K (absolute) and °C (gauged), just with the nasty difference that the offset isn't constant and has to be specified whenever a conversion is to be done.

Doing it that way, I could not add psia ... in some of my sheets. Re-defining ATM to the actual site ATM appears to be the best way to do this at this time.

I'll post another worksheet where this is applied after I clean up my notes

@ 32 F, can you not get ... 0.611*kPaAbs ... 0.0886181*PSI

Just put all those numbers in vector and attempt Σ polynomials,
I will check from there. There must be a formula nearly executable.
Revisit the latest "Psychrometry Refactored"

... in fact, @ the water triple point [32.02 F] the saturation pressure is seemingly undefined,
and not listed in WASP, but it does exist for true ! 0.611*kPaAbs.

I updated the first post attachment using cases() and incorporating comments from above. Close enough for engineering purposes
