...Black applied his theory of latent heat to the conversion of liquids into elastic fluids, and showed that it is owing to the very same cause as the conversion...with the liquid without any increase of temperature. From his experiments, compared with those of Mr. Watt and Mr. Lavoisier, it appears that the latent... | |
