• Vapor-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… …   Wikipedia

• Vapor pressure — (also known as equilibrium vapor pressure or saturation vapor pressure ), is the pressure of a vapor in equilibrium with its non vapor phases. All liquids and solids have a tendency to evaporate to a gaseous form, and all gases have a tendency to …   Wikipedia

• Chemical equilibrium — In a chemical reaction, chemical equilibrium is the state in which the concentrations of the reactants and products have not yet changed with time. It occurs only in reversible reactions, and not in irreversible reactions. Usually, this state… …   Wikipedia

• Vapor-compression evaporation — is the evaporation method by which a blower, compressor or jet ejector is used to compress, and thus, increase the pressure of the vapor produced. Since the pressure increase of the vapor also generates an increase in the condensation temperature …   Wikipedia

• Vapor — A vapor or vapour (see spelling differences) is a substance in the gas phase at a temperature lower than its critical temperature. [R.H.Petrucci, W.S.Harwood and F.G.Herring, General Chemistry , 8th edition (Prentice Hall 2002), p.486] This means …   Wikipedia
