The 43 pages that link to Latent heat, each with the reason it gives.
Phase transitionRelated: First-order transitions exchange latent heat as matter changes phase.
CryogenicsRelated: Evaporation and condensation move large amounts of heat in cryogenic equipment.
Air conditioningRelated: Moisture removal consumes latent cooling capacity as water condenses.
HurricanesRelated: Condensation releases heat that helps power a hurricane's warm core.
SteamingRelated: Condensing steam releases latent heat onto the food.
CondenserRelated: Condensing vapor releases latent heat that the exchanger must carry away.
WeatherRelated: Water’s phase changes transfer energy that can intensify clouds and storms.
CycloneRelated: Condensation releases heat that can strengthen tropical cyclones.
TyphoonRelated: Condensing water vapor releases heat that fuels a typhoon's circulation.
EvaporatorRelated: Most heat uptake in the evaporator accompanies liquid refrigerant becoming vapor.
TroposphereRelated: Condensation releases latent heat that helps power storms and deep convection.
Cumulonimbus cloudRelated: Condensation releases heat that strengthens the cloud’s updrafts.
PhaseRelated: It accounts for energy exchanged while the phase changes at fixed temperature.
State of matterRelated: It explains why adding energy at a transition need not raise temperature.
EicosaneRelated: Eicosane stores heat as it melts and releases it as it solidifies.
