Quantité de chaleur nécessaire pour faire passer l'unité de masse du corps de la phase liquide à la phase vapeur; [elle] est fonction de la température. 3, record 1, French, - chaleur%20latente%20de%20vaporisation
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Dans le cas de la vapeur d'eau ce phénomène [condensation] est à l'origine des nuages, des précipitations, de la rosée. En se condensant, une certaine masse d'eau libère la même quantité de chaleur qu'elle aurait absorbé pour s'évaporer; c'est la chaleur latente de vaporisation. 4, record 1, French, - chaleur%20latente%20de%20vaporisation
