Solid-state electronics. Solid-state electronics are those circuits or devices built entirely from solid materials and in which the electrons, or other charge carriers, are confined entirely within the solid material.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Latent heat is energy released or absorbed, by a body or a thermodynamic system, during a constant-temperature process that is specified in some way. An example is latent heat of fusion for a phase change, melting, at a specified temperature and pressure. The term was introduced around 1762 by Scottish chemist Joseph Black. It is derived from the Latin latere (to lie hidden).
1 Latent heat of condensation (Lc): Refers to the heat gained by the air when water vapor changes into a liquid. 2  Lc=2500 Joules per gram (J/g) of water or 600 calories per gram (cal/g) of water. 3  Latent heat of fusion (Lf): Refers to the heat lost or gained by the air when liquid water changes to ice or vice versa.
