Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: In EvaporationCalculation the specificHeat value 1.996 is off by a factor of about 2. It seems to have used the steam (gas) per gram value instead of the liquid water value per gram (or per mL volumetric) value.

[ASSERTION] Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: Dimensional analysis of TemperatureIncrease and EvaporationCalculation implies the 'specificHeat' is a volumetric heat capacity, not a specific heat capacity (heat capacity per unit of mass).
[ISSUE] Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: Dimensional analysis of VaporPressureCalculationConstraint implies each 1 mL of water is equated with EXACTLY 1 g of produced vapor.
[ASSERTION]{STRONG} Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: It is assumed that "vapor" is a volume rate corresponding to the rate of consumption OF HEATED LIQUID WATER (from a tank) used to create the vapor.
