The Latent Heat Saga
A n outstanding scientific and technological achievement of the twentieth century has been the evolution of nuclear energy which forms part of the mix of energy sources on which the continued growth of our civilization depends. In the twenty-first century we may be blessed with the arrival of another source of energy, of similar magnitude, which is more benign than nuclear energy and does not h...
متن کاملLatent heat of nuclear matter
We study the latent heat of the liquid-gas phase transition in symmetric nuclear matter using self-consistent mean-field calculations with a few Skyrme forces. The temperature dependence of the latent heat is rather independent of the mean-field parametrization and can be characterized by a few parameters. At low temperatures, the latent heat tends to the saturation energy. Near the critical po...
متن کاملThe Heat of Dissociation of Nitrogen
The heat of dissociation of nitrogen has been studied many times and the latest values are shown in Table 1. The three experimental methods give somewhat discordant results. By methods I, II and IV, D(N 2) = 9·765 eV.* Method I does not eliminate D(N 2) = 7·373 eV. D(N 2) = 11·8 eV by methods III and IV. D(CN) = 8·2 and 8·5 eV respectively by methods II and III, while method IV gives a lower re...
متن کاملLatent Heat Recovery in Exhaust Gas of a Condensing Boiler: The Effect of Arrangement of Tubes
Boilers are one of the major energy consumers in the building. For this reason, increasing the efficiency of this device and improving its performance is an effective step in solving the problems in building energy and reducing waste energy. Due to the limited resources of fossil fuels and the increasing cost of energy in the world, manufacturers of these equipment are always working to improve...
متن کاملThe fractional latent heat of crystallizing magmas
The fractional latent heat of a crystallizing system is simply the latent heat of fusion divided by the total enthalpy. When plotted against temperature, this function displays robust pulses with the successive saturation of each incoming crystal phase. Each pulse endures for tens of degrees, corresponding to tens to hundreds of thousands of years in large magma bodies. From an original 1963 de...
