Latent heat — In thermochemistry, latent heat is the amount of energy in the form of heat released or absorbed by a substance during a change of phase state(i.e. solid, liquid, or gas), ndash; also called a phase transition.cite book | author=Perrot, Pierre |… … Wikipedia
Evaporation — is the process by which molecules in a liquid state (e.g. water) spontaneously become gaseous (e.g. water vapor). It is the opposite of condensation. Generally, evaporation can be seen by the gradual disappearance of a liquid when exposed to a… … Wikipedia
Heat pipe — A heat pipe is a heat transfer mechanism that can transport large quantities of heat with a very small difference in temperature between the hotter and colder interfaces. Inside a heat pipe, at the hot interface a fluid turns to vapour and the… … Wikipedia
Heat transfer — is a discipline of thermal engineering that concerns the exchange of thermal energy from one physical system to another. Heat transfer is classified into various mechanisms, such as heat conduction, convection, thermal radiation, and phase change … Wikipedia

evaporation rate — A measure of the quantity of a liquid converted to vapor in a unit of time. Among single component liquids, the rate varies directly with the surface area, the temperature and the vapor pressure, and inversely with the latent heat of… … Forensic science glossary
heat — 1. A high temperature; the sensation produced by proximity to fire or an incandescent object, as opposed to cold. 2. The kinetic energy of atoms and molecules, as well as rotation and vibration. 3. SYN: estrus. 4. SYN … Medical dictionary
Vapor-compression evaporation — is the evaporation method by which a blower, compressor or jet ejector is used to compress, and thus, increase the pressure of the vapor produced. Since the pressure increase of the vapor also generates an increase in the condensation temperature … Wikipedia
