| The enthalpy change which occurs when a solid is melted is called the heat of fusion. |
|
| When this surface layer is cooled to the ice point, 0 °C, ice is formed as the latent heat of fusion is extracted. |
|
| Melting of a given mass of a solid requires the addition of a characteristic amount of heat, the heat of fusion. |
|
| This freezing action releases the latent heat of fusion, so that the temperature of the water returns toward the freezing point. |
|
| The heat released during crystallization was comparable to the heat of fusion, indicating the highly amorphous nature of this mixture. |
|
| The amount of energy consumed in breaking hydrogen bonds in the transition from ice to water is known as the heat of fusion. |
|
| The heat required to balance loss to the atmosphere, and hence to maintain the open water, is provided by the latent heat of fusion of the ice which continually forms. |
|
| Water's latent heat of fusion is the highest of all common materials. |
|
| The latent heat of fusion, if the polymer is crystalline. |
|
| Glauber's salt remained in the short list since it has a high reported latent heat of fusion and thermal conductivity. |
