Annotation

Findings of an experimental investigation of the heat transfer mechanism at work in the thin water - air boundary layer in the absence of advective transport are presented. Data are cited on values of the coefficient of turbulent heat transfer in the thin surface layer of air over the water and in the near - surface layer of the water, estimates are offered for the ratio of the coefficients of turbulent thermal diffusivity and turbulent diffusion of moisture, and the Bowen number is calculated.
