Enthalpy of fusion 熔化热
(重定向自Enthalpy of melting)
The enthalpy of fusion of a substance, also known as (latent) heat of fusion, is the change in its enthalpy resulting from providing energy, typically heat, to a specific quantity of the substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid at constant pressure. This energy includes the contribution required to make room for any associated change in volume by displacing its environment against ambient pressure. The temperature at which the phase transition occurs is the melting point. By convention, the pressure is assumed to be 1 atm (101.325 kPa) unless otherwise specified.
