1Phase (matter) — In the physical sciences, a phase is a region of space (a thermodynamic system), throughout which all physical properties of a material are essentially uniform.[1] Examples of physical properties include density, index of refraction, and chemical …
2Phase transition — This diagram shows the nomenclature for the different phase transitions. A phase transition is the transformation of a thermodynamic system from one phase or state of matter to another. A phase of a thermodynamic system and the states of matter… …
3Phase of vibration — Vibration Vi*bra tion, n. [L. vibratio: cf. F. vibration.] 1. The act of vibrating, or the state of being vibrated, or in vibratory motion; quick motion to and fro; oscillation, as of a pendulum or musical string. [1913 Webster] As a harper lays… …
4Vapor-liquid equilibrium — Vapor liquid equilibrium, abbreviated as VLE by some, is a condition where a liquid and its vapor (gas phase) are in equilibrium with each other, a condition or state where the rate of evaporation (liquid changing to vapor) equals the rate of… …

9Heteroazeotrope — A heteroazeotrope is an azeotrope where the vapour phase coexists with two liquid phases.Sketch of a T x/y equilibrium curve of a typical heteroazeotropic mixture Examples of heteroazeotropes *Benzene Water NBP 69.2 °C *Dichloromethane Water NBP… …
10Ocean thermal energy conversion — Temperature differences between the surface and 1000m depth in the oceans Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) uses the difference between cooler deep and warmer shallow or surface ocean waters to run a heat engine and produce useful work,… …
