According to the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, this property is the numerator in the pressure derivative at a coexistence curve.
According to the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, this property is the numerator in the pressure derivative at a coexistence curve. Defined by Joseph Black in about 1750, this energetic may be divided by a sensible heat transfer to yield the inverse of Bowen's ratio. Fundamentally, this quantity exists because there is some potential energy change to changing the phase of a material, even at constant conditions. FTP, identify this quantity from thermal chemistry; the amount of energy required to cause a material to change phase.
