"and related to the mass fraction of the dry air" seems vague to me. I understand that the enthalpy of air will depend on the relative amounts of various constituents (e.g., N2, O2, and trace species), which would often be assumed to be fixed, and that it also depends on the water vapor amount, which would normally not be considered fixed. Is the definition saying that only the enthalpy of dry air is being considered, or is this the enthalpy of the mixture. Perhaps the following would be clearer: definition: the enthalpy of air per unit mass, which can often be approximated by a mass-weighted mean of the enthalpies of dry air and of the water vapor in the air. Please check that this statement is actually correct, as I have written it down from memory.
