Heike Kamerlingh Onnes a "Kamerlingh Onnes Laboratorium" named after him, as well as a plaque and several machines used by Kamerling Onnes in the main hall of the physics department. The Kamerlingh Onnes Award was established in his honour, recognising further advances in low-temperature science. The Onnes effect referring to the creeping of superfluid helium is named in his honor. The crater Kamerlingh Onnes on the Moon is named after him. Onnes is also credited with coining the word "enthalpy". Onnes' discovery of superconductivity was named an IEEE Milestone in 2011.

Liquefaction of gases textiles and manufacture of carbon tetrachloride, glycol and numerous other organic compounds as well as phosgene gas. Liquefaction of helium (He) with the precooled Hampson–Linde cycle led to a Nobel Prize for Heike Kamerlingh Onnes in 1913. At ambient pressure the boiling point of liquefied helium is . Below 2.17 K liquid He becomes a superfluid (Nobel Prize 1978, Pyotr Kapitsa) and shows characteristic properties such as heat conduction through second sound, zero viscosity and the fountain effect among others. The liquefaction of gases is a complicated process that uses various compressions and expansions to achieve high pressures and very
