Condensation: The process by which a vapor becomes a liquid.
Contamination (Water): The adding of any substance to water which makes it unfit for use.
Condensation
The process of water vapor (gas) changing into liquid water. An example of condensation can be seen in the tiny water droplets that form on the outside of a glass of iced tea as warmer air touches the cooler glass.

Condensation: A deposit of moisture droplets from humid air on surfaces that are cooler than that air. Condensation will form when warm, moist air contacts a cooler surface causing the air to be reduced to the dew point temperature.
Condensation: The process in the hydrologic cycle by which a vapor becomes a liquid; the opposite of evaporation.
Condensation: The process by which a vapor becomes a liquid or solid; the opposite of evaporation. In meteorological usage, this term is applied only to the transformation from vapour to liquid.
condensation
the change of state from a gas to a liquid. Compare evaporation, sublimation.

condensation : The process by which a liquid is removed from a vapor. In the water cycle, water vapor rises, cools, and condenses, sometimes clinging to tiny particles of dust in the atmosphere.
Condensation - (Gaseous) water vapor that begins to change to tiny water droplets (a liquid state) or ice crystals when the air gets cold enough. This process begins at the dew point.
condensation 1) A chemical reaction in which water or another simple substance is released by the combination of two or more molecules. 2) The process in which water vapor is cooled to the liquid phase.
C condensation
Definition (english only)
The aggregation of water molecules from vapor to liquid or solid when the saturation concentration is exceeded.
* Condensation
Change of a substance to a denser form, such as gas to a liquid. The opposite of evaporation.
...
accumulation (glacial) All processes, which include snowfall, condensation, avalanching, snow transport by wind, and freezing of liquid water, that add snow or ice to a glacier, floating ice, or snow cover.
The temperature to which air with a given quantity of water vapor must be cooled to cause condensation of the vapor in the air. d
ewater. 1) To remove or separate a portion of the water present in a sludge or slurry.
Many such problems can be solved by using a more elaborate monomer recycling process, in which a condensation polymer essentially undergoes the inverse of the polymerization reaction used to manufacture it.
the temperature at which the condensation of a vapor begins; the term is usually applied to condensation of moisture from the water vapor in the atmosphere.

CLIMATE: Meteorological conditions, including temperature, precipitation, condensation and wind.
COLORADO RIVER AQUEDUCT: A 242-mile structure that transports water from the Colorado River to Southern California.
Fumes: Airborne particles, usually less than 1 micrometer in size, formed by condensation of vapors, sublimation, distillation, calcination or chemical reaction.
Fumigant: A biocide that is vaporized to kill pests. Used indoors or outdoors.
Hydraulic Cycle: The continuous circulation of water between the earth and the atmosphere, through condensation, precipitation, runoff, percolation, evaporation, transpiration, groundwater storage and seepage, ...
Condensate: The liquid that separates from a vapor during condensation.
Conductance: The product of conductivity and thickness [Siemens].
Asbestos-containing material applied to pipes, fittings, boilers, breeching, tanks, ducts, or other interior structural components to prevent heat loss or gain or water condensation.

(1) A device for measuring percolation and leaching losses of water and solutes from a column of soil under controlled conditions. (2) A device for measuring gains (precipitation and condensation) and losses (evapotranspiration) of water by a column ...
Hurricanes start when warm, moist air from the ocean surface begins to rise rapidly, where it encounters cooler air that causes the warm water vapor to condense and to form storm clouds and drops of rain. The condensation also releases latent heat, ...
Indicates that a Tentatively Identified Compound (TIC) is a suspected aldol-condensation product.

Thermal System Insulation (TSI): Asbestos-containing material applied to pipes, fittings, boilers, breeching, tanks, ducts, or other interior structural components to prevent heat loss or gain or water condensation.
The west slopes of the Sierras rise gradually from the Great Valley, receiving very little precipitation; heavy rains fall near mid-slope as a result of condensation of cool moist air.
