  2. Condensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensation

    Condensation is the change of the state of matter from the gas phase into the liquid phase, and is the reverse of vaporization. The word most often refers to the water cycle . [ 1 ] It can also be defined as the change in the state of water vapor to liquid water when in contact with a liquid or solid surface or cloud condensation nuclei within ...

  3. Natural-gas condensate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural-gas_condensate

    The natural gas condensate is also called condensate, or gas condensate, or sometimes natural gasoline because it contains hydrocarbons within the gasoline boiling range, and is also referred to by the shortened name condy by many workers on gas installations. Raw natural gas used to create condensate may come from any type of gas well such as ...

  4. Liquefaction of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefaction_of_gases

    Liquid nitrogen. Liquefaction of gases is physical conversion of a gas into a liquid state (condensation). The liquefaction of gases is a complicated process that uses various compressions and expansions to achieve high pressures and very low temperatures, using, for example, turboexpanders.

  5. Phase transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_transition

    Quantum condensation of bosonic fluids (Bose–Einstein condensation). The superfluid transition in liquid helium is an example of this. The breaking of symmetries in the laws of physics during the early history of the universe as its temperature cooled.

  6. Water cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle

    Condensation: The transformation of water vapor to liquid water droplets in the air, creating clouds and fog. [8] Evaporation: The transformation of water from liquid to gas phases as it moves from the ground or bodies of water into the overlying atmosphere. [9] The source of energy for evaporation is primarily solar radiation.

  7. Liquefaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefaction

    In physics and chemistry, the phase transitions from solid and gas to liquid (melting and condensation, respectively) may be referred to as liquefaction.The melting point (sometimes called liquefaction point) is the temperature and pressure at which a solid becomes a liquid.

  8. Cloud point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_point

    The cloud point is analogous to the 'dew point' at which a gas-liquid phase transition called condensation occurs in water vapour (humid air) to form liquid water (dew or clouds). When the temperature is below 0 °C, the dew point is called the frost point, as water vapour undergoes gas-solid phase transition called deposition , solidification ...

  9. Condensate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensate

    Condensate may refer to: The liquid phase produced by the condensation of steam or any other gas; The product of a chemical condensation reaction, other than water; Natural-gas condensate, in the natural gas industry; Condensate, a 2011 album by The Original 7ven, the band formerly known as The Time
