Electrowinning - water evaporation rates (2 replies)

I'm looking for information (data or literature) on water evaporation rates in copper EW. There are lots of factors that will affect this - electrolyte composition and temperature, ventilation, foam mist suppression or not, etc. But, I presume there is literature or common knowledge on this.
