Sous l'effet d'un accroissement de pression, la vapeur peut se condenser, c.-à-d. passer à l'état liquide. Dans des conditions particulières, la vapeur peut se trouver en contact avec la phase liquide et en équilibre avec celle-ci; si l'équilibre est stable, la pression de la vapeur ne dépend que de la température, et la vapeur est alors dite saturée. La vapeur saturée, mais encore en présence de la phase liquide, est dite vapeur saturée humide; quand la phase liquide est complètement évaporée, on parle de vapeur saturée sèche, enfin, quand la température de la vapeur sèche augmente encore, on parle de vapeur surchauffée. 1, record 1, French, - vapeur%20s%C3%A8che
