latent heat

• Количество тепловой энергии, поглощаемой или выделяемой веществом во время фазового перехода (такого как плавление, замерзание, испарение или конденсация) при постоянной температуре и давлении.

The amount of heat energy absorbed or released by a substance during a phase change (such as melting, freezing, vaporization, or condensation) at a constant temperature and pressure.

   The amount of heat absorbed or released by a substance during a phase change (e.g., melting, boiling) without a change in temperature.

   • The latent heat of fusion is the energy needed to melt ice into water.
   • During condensation, latent heat is released into the atmosphere.
   • Engineers calculate latent heat to design efficient cooling systems.
