Abstract
The latent heat of vaporization/condensation of saline water represents the energy needed for phase change from liquid to vapor or reverse. It is an important thermodynamic property for thermal desalination and water treatment processes, especially when water is separated by vaporization. This chapter introduced the thermodynamic approaches, correlation, and data used to estimate latent heat of vaporization at different salinity and temperature values. Furthermore, the estimated latent heat of vaporization values from the correlations and methods are compared and assessed against the experimental data of seawater. Some correlations and methods are recommended based on their accuracy and operating conditions. Additionally, the codes used in this chapter are supplied.
