Abstract

Apparatus for determining the vapor content of a gas/vapor mixture comprises two temperature sensing devices. One of the devices measures the temperature of a liquid evaporating from a liquid saturated wick in contact with the device. The other temperature sensing device measures the temperature of the gas/vapor mixture in which it is immersed. A cooling device is provided for condensing some of the vapor from the gas/vapor mixture to maintain a liquid supply for the wick.
