Partial vapor pressure of triple point of water: 611.73 Pa or 611.657 Pa?

[edit]

The value 611.73 Pa is provided in this plot and in all related articles in Wikipedia. Yet the description cites this source which mentions 611.657 Pa. I think that this would be more correct: Murphy and Koop (QJRMS, 2005) give 611.657 +/- 0.01 Pa and this is also the value used by the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (Wagner et al., J.Phys.Chem.Ref.Data,1994). I recommend to correct this diagram accordingly. Simon Chabrillat (talk) 11:03, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
