In ANSYS Fluent the dimension of the molecular weight is expressed in kg\/kmol (kg\/kgmol = kg per 1000 moles). So to get the correct input of heat of vaporization or in general the standard state enthalpy of particular fluid at a reference temperature for Fluent the conversion below is required: standard state enthalpy in [J\/kg]* Molar Mass [kg\/kgmol] = Latent Heat in [J\/kgmol ] Keywords: Latent Heat, kg\/kmol, molecular weight<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-161811","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-2019-r1","topic-tag-fluent","topic-tag-fluid-dynamics","topic-tag-mp-eulerian-mp-flow","topic-tag-multiphase","topic-tag-phase-change"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
