Latent & Sensible Heat

To help you understand the refrigerant phases (changes) in a vapour compression system, let us first consider the basic properties of water: how does the addition or removal of heat affect the temperature (Celsius) and state (solid, liquid, vapour) of the water?. Latent & Sensible Heat.

  1. To help you understand the refrigerant phases (changes) in a vapour compression system, let us first consider the basic properties of water: how does the addition or removal of heat affect the temperature (Celsius) and state (solid, liquid, vapour) of the water? Latent & Sensible Heat

  2. Latent & Sensible Heat

  3. What is the Celsius Scale?

  4. Definitions Sensible heat • When an object is heated, its temperature rises. The increase in heat is called sensible heat. Similarly, when heat is removed from an object and its temperature falls, the heat removed is also called sensible heat. • Heat that causes a change in temperature in an object or substance is called sensible heat.

  5. Latent heat 1 • All pure substances in nature are able to change their state. Solids can become liquids (ice to water) and liquids can become gases (water to vapor) but changes such as these require the addition or removal of heat. • The heat that causes a change in state is called latent heat.

  6. Latent heat 2 • Latent heat however, does not affect the temperature of a substance - for example, water remains at 100°C while boiling. The heat added to keep the water boiling is latent heat. • Heat that causes a change of state with no change in temperature is called latent heat.
