heat of vaporization
The heat of vaporization greatly exceeds the sensible heat capacity.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Note that cooling towers operate using the latent heat of vaporization of the cooling fluid.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Steam is a capacious reservoir for thermal energy because of water's high heat of vaporization.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Condensing steam is a particularly efficient heating fluid because of the large heat of vaporization.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Water has a high heat of vaporization and is relatively inert, which makes it a good fire extinguishing fluid.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The slope of the line of constant WBT reflects the heat of vaporization of the water required to saturate the air of a given relative humidity.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Commonly quoted and tabulated in the literature are the specific latent heat of fusion and the specific latent heat of vaporization for many substances.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Flue-gas condensation allows the latent heat of vaporization of the water to be recovered, subsequently increasing the thermal efficiency of the plant.
From the en.wikipedia.org
There's also a lot of work being done on commercializing methods based on exploiting solvents that create an osmotic pressure differential but have a low heat of vaporization.
