  2. Sublimation (phase transition) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sublimation_(phase_transition)

    The sublimation that occurs at the solid-gas boundary (critical sublimation point) (corresponding to boiling in vaporization) may be called rapid sublimation, and the substance sublimes rapidly. The words "gradual" and "rapid" have acquired special meanings in this context and no longer describe the rate of sublimation. [citation needed]

  3. Sublimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sublimation

    Sublimation or sublimate may refer to: Sublimation, by Canvas Solaris, 2004; Sublimation (phase transition), directly from the solid to the gas phase; Sublimation (psychology), a mature type of defense mechanism; Sublimate of mercury, or Mercury(II) chloride; Volcanic sublimate, a product of deposition from vapors around volcanic vents

  4. Heat press - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_press

    A heat press is used to permanently apply a heat transfer to a surface. Common transfer types are Heat Transfer Vinyl cut with a vinyl cutter, Printable Heat Transfer Vinyl, Inkjet Transfer Paper, Laser Transfer Paper, Plastisol Transfers, and Sublimation. Using a Heat Press to apply a heat transfer is a way to ensure accurate time, temperature ...

  5. Water cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle

    The processes that drive these movements are evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation, sublimation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid and vapor. The ocean plays a key role in the water cycle as it is the source of 86% of global evaporation.

  6. Ablation zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ablation_zone

    The ablation zone is found at the lowest altitude of the glacier, where ablation of material is lesser than accumulation. Ablation zone or ablation area refers to the low-altitude area of a glacier or ice sheet below firn with a net loss in ice mass due to melting, sublimation, evaporation, ice calving, aeolian processes like blowing snow, avalanche, and any other ablation.

  7. Enthalpy of sublimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_of_sublimation

    In thermodynamics, the enthalpy of sublimation, or heat of sublimation, is the heat required to sublimate (change from solid to gas) one mole of a substance at a given combination of temperature and pressure, usually standard temperature and pressure (STP). It is equal to the cohesive energy of the solid.

  8. Water vapor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_vapor

    Water vapor, water vapour or aqueous vapor is the gaseous phase of water.It is one state of water within the hydrosphere.Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or from the sublimation of ice.

  9. Sublimatory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sublimatory

    A sublimatory [1] [2] or sublimation apparatus is equipment, commonly laboratory glassware, for purification of compounds by selective sublimation. In principle, the operation resembles purification by distillation , except that the products do not pass through a liquid phase .
