latent heat

That high-pressure engines owed their advantages mainly to a reduction of the relative importance of this latent heat.

In descending it is recondensed, and by the process by which its atoms are brought together its latent heat is made sensible.

Dr. Blacks discovery of latent heat, however, has afforded a very easy and natural explication of this phenomenon.

Cavendish knew of the suggestion, but in his experiments refuted the idea that the hydrogen lost any of its latent heat.

Because of the liberation of the latent heat from the precipitated vapour.
