Sensible heat is heat exchanged by a body or thermodynamic system that changes the temperature, and some macroscopic variables of the body, but leaves unchanged certain other macroscopic variables, such as volume or pressure. Sensible heat and latent heat are not special forms of energy. Rather, they describe exchanges of heat under conditions spe...
