  2. Enthalpy of vaporization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_of_vaporization

    Temperature-dependency of the heats of vaporization for water, methanol, benzene, and acetone. In thermodynamics, the enthalpy of vaporization (symbol ∆H vap), also known as the (latent) heat of vaporization or heat of evaporation, is the amount of energy that must be added to a liquid substance to transform a quantity of that substance into a gas.

  5. Shimansky equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shimansky_equation

    L is the latent heat of vaporization at the temperature T, T C is the critical temperature, L 0 is the parameter that is equal to the heat of vaporization at zero temperature (T → 0), tanh is the hyperbolic tangent function. This equation was obtained in 1955 by Yu. I. Shimansky, at first empirically, and later derived theoretically.

  6. Bowen ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowen_ratio

    The Bowen ratio is calculated by the equation: =, where is sensible heating and is latent heating. In this context, when the magnitude of is less than one, a greater proportion of the available energy at the surface is passed to the atmosphere as latent heat than as sensible heat, and the converse is true for values of greater than one.

  7. Trouton's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trouton's_rule

    In thermodynamics, Trouton's rule states that the (molar) entropy of vaporization is almost the same value, about 85–88 J/(K·mol), for various kinds of liquids at their boiling points. [1] The entropy of vaporization is defined as the ratio between the enthalpy of vaporization and the boiling temperature. It is named after Frederick Thomas ...
