Is it sq. ft. or what? In any event, you will find three methods for calculating the evaporation rate from non-boiling liquid pools if you visit: www.air-dispersion.com/usource.html If you want see those methods in SI metric units, then visit: www.air-dispersion.com/msource.html I'm not sure whether those three methods apply for a system under a slight vacuum (i.e., -2" Hg) but perhaps you will them useful.
