water vapor permeance

 

water vapor transmission of a body between two specified parallel surfaces, induced by the vapor pressure difference between two surfaces. The test conditions must be stated. An accepted unit of water-vapor permeance is the perm. Note: Permeance is a performance evaluation and not a property of a material. See perm; rep.
