eli5 why does a shower steam up when the water isn’t at boiling point?
In: 0
It’s condensation and water vapor produced from the water’s pouring action, not steam. The bathroom surfaces are cold and the warm running water increases the temperature of the air and the humidity. Just like the outside of a glass of ice water sitting out on a porch in the summer, the moisture precipitates out of the air and onto the colder surface
