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. Latent heat can be understood as hidden energy which is supplied or extracted to change the state ...

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.
The wet-bulb temperature is the lowest temperature that may be achieved by evaporative cooling of a water-wetted, ventilated surface.. By contrast, the dew point is the temperature to which the ambient air must be cooled to reach 100% relative humidity assuming there is no further evaporation into the air; it is the temperature where condensation (dew) and clouds would form.
Taking a volume of air at temperature T and mixing ratio of r, drying it by condensation will restore energy to the airmass. This will depend on the latent heat release as: + where: : latent heat of evaporation (2400 kJ/kg at 25°C to 2600 kJ/kg at −40°C)

It is a very efficient mode of heat transfer. In layman's terms, saturated steam is at its dew point at the corresponding temperature and pressure. The typical latent heat of vaporization (or condensation) is 970 BTU/lb (2,256 kJ/kg) for saturated steam at atmospheric pressure. [8]
Schematic of the LCL in relation to the temperature (T) and dew point and their altitude (Z); the moist adiabatic temperature curve above the LCL is also sketched for reference The lifting condensation level or lifted condensation level ( LCL ) is the height at which the relative humidity (RH) of an air parcel will reach 100% with respect to ...
