什么是 Supercooling, superheating?

Definition 25.14 University Physics — Year 1 · 第 25 章 — Phase Changes of a Pure Substance

A phase can persist beyond its equilibrium boundary: liquid water cooled below 0∘C0{}^{\circ}\mathrm{C} without freezing (supercooling), heated above its boiling point without boiling (superheating), vapour compressed beyond PsP_s without condensing (supersaturation). Such metastable states require the absence of nucleation sites — dust, scratches, dissolved gas, ice crystals — on which the new phase can start; a disturbance tips them suddenly and irreversibly to equilibrium.

示例

Example 25.15 (The supercooled bottle)

Still water at −8∘C-8{}^{\circ}\mathrm{C} in a clean bottle, knocked: ice crystals shoot through it and the temperature jumps to 0∘C0{}^{\circ}\mathrm{C}. The process is adiabatic and fast, so the sensible heat c ΔTc\,\Delta T freezes a fraction x=c ΔT/Lf=4.18×8/334=0.10x = c\,\Delta T/L_f = 4.18 \times 8/334 = 0.10 of the water; the entropy created, cln⁡(273/265)−xLf/273=124−122=+2 J/(kg K)c\ln(273/265) - xL_f/273 = 124 - 122 = +2\,\mathrm{J}/(\mathrm{kg}\,\mathrm{K}), is positive as it must be. Clouds are full of supercooled droplets down to −40∘C-40{}^{\circ}\mathrm{C}; aircraft icing and the seeding of clouds both exploit that.
