Re: heat transfer and humidity

Water is a better thermal conductor than air, so I would say the more water vapor in the air the faster it would asorb heat from the radiator, but I'd never seen any factual evidence to support that. I'm sure curtis can help, hes the chemist around these parts.

Although I live in texas, and its been being ~105 with 90's% humdity and it sure doesnt feel like it takes the heat from my body very fast, more like a hot wet blanket draped over me.
