乾燥断熱、湿潤断熱

English translation: dry adiabatic lapse / moist adiabatic lapse

Tech/Engineering / electric wire
Japanese term or phrase: 乾燥断熱、湿潤断熱
断熱ラップスレートの場合、
乾燥断熱、湿潤断熱について決まった言い方があるようです。
以下の言い方で間違いないでしょうか。
The biggest remaining problem is that the experimental model is very temperature-sensitive, whereas estimating temperature when it is snowing leads to poor estimation precision in an ordinary dry or wet adiabatic lapse process.

neutral  Kevin Snow: moist is probably okay, unless you're doing a scientific paper and then Saturated from the answer below is probably a better choice.

agree  SHineno: Please look at http://www.tpub.com/weather2/2-18.htm "moist (saturation) adiabatic lapse rate seems to be the correct term.

neutral  Soonthon LUPKITARO(Ph.D.): dannetsu is usually translated to 'thermal insulator' for a material. Adiabatic is used in 'thermodynamics'

Dry Adiabatic/Saturated or Wet or Moist Adiabatic


Explanation:
According to various online scientific resources, it looks like "dry adiabatic" is the only accepted term for "乾燥断熱", but "saturated adiabatic","wet adiabatic" and "moist adiabatic" are acceptable terms for "湿潤断熱".

The experimental model which is very temperature-sensitive...


Explanation:
The experimental model has accurately estimated how the temperature would change upon conducting both dry and wet adiabatic lapse process (if you want to use this, it may be better to explain what you mean)/ insulating dry and wet air (would maybe fit better in this context) in locations where there is no snow (whether there is rain, heavy thunder storms etc...) whereas results remain to be umpredictable under snowy conditions./ However, results remain to be unpredictable under snowy conditions, which remains to be the biggest problem in marketing.../ having an edge over competing products......
