Why is temperature limitation can be beyond 1?

Question

Hi Chris,

Wondering why the temperature limitations can be beyond 1 (Based on the limiting function, the values can be larger than 1, but I am not sure the physical meaning), could you please explain more? Thanks very much.

Regards,

Answer 1

This is more a mathematical vagary of the formulation used rather than a physical explanation

The equation is set up so that F(T) = 1 at the standard temperature rather than the optimum temperature.

It's detailed in equations 6.8 - 6.13 of the CAEDYM Science manual.

Let me know if you need a copy
