After having reached the boiling point the water gradually disappears until the whole of the 1 Ib. Of water has been converted into 1 Ib. Of steam, during which process the temperature remains constant at 212 F. The heat thus i...mparted to produce the change of state, without change of temperature, is called latent heat. The conversion of 1 Ib. Of water to 1 Ib. Of steam absorbs 967 B. T. TJ. Note however that this quantity is true only for steam formed at the pressure of one atmosphere. The latent heat may be approximately obtained from the formula L = IU4-0'7t~F. where = the latent heat in thermal units of one pound of steam formed at a temperature t F. Steam in contact with the water from which it is generated is known as saturated steam and is steam at its maximum density.
