Provides specific heat of water vapor at a temperature T.

Parameters
Tint or float

Temperature in ‘Celsius’ at which specific heat is required.

Returns
specific heatint or float

Specific heat (J/kg K) at temperature T.

Notes

Look up table adapted from ref [1].

Linear interpolation is performed when the temperature lies between tabulated entries.
