interphasenWärmetransport

InterphasenWärmetransport describes the transfer of heat across the boundary between two different phases of matter. This occurs in numerous natural and engineering processes, such as boiling, condensation, melting, and freezing. The rate of heat transfer across an interface is influenced by several factors including the temperature difference between the phases, the thermal properties of the materials involved, and the geometry of the interface. Phase change heat transfer is often significantly more efficient than heat transfer within a single phase due to the latent heat associated with the phase transformation. For example, during boiling, large amounts of heat can be transferred as the liquid turns into vapor, absorbing energy without a significant temperature increase. Similarly, condensation releases latent heat as vapor transforms into liquid. Understanding interphasenWärmetransport is crucial for designing efficient heat exchangers, power generation systems, and many other technological applications where phase transitions play a role. The complexity of the phenomena involved often requires sophisticated modeling and experimental investigation to accurately predict and control heat transfer rates.
