  2. Condenser (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(heat_transfer)

    The earliest laboratory condenser, a "Gegenstromkühler" (counter-flow condenser), was invented in 1771 by the Swedish-German chemist Christian Weigel. [2]By the mid-19th century, German chemist Justus von Liebig would provide his own improvements on the preceding designs of Weigel and Johann Friedrich August Göttling, with the device becoming known as the Liebig condenser.

  3. Heat transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer

    Earth's longwave thermal radiation intensity, from clouds, atmosphere and surface.. Heat transfer is the energy exchanged between materials (solid/liquid/gas) as a result of a temperature difference.

  4. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    Although convective heat transfer can be derived analytically through dimensional analysis, exact analysis of the boundary layer, approximate integral analysis of the boundary layer and analogies between energy and momentum transfer, these analytic approaches may not offer practical solutions to all problems when there are no mathematical models applicable.

  5. Latent heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_heat

    Latent heat (also known as latent energy or heat of transformation) is energy released or absorbed, by a body or a thermodynamic system, during a constant-temperature process—usually a first-order phase transition, like melting or condensation.
