The wikipedia page does not mention the complementary phenomena of decalescence.
Definition of *decalescence* : the decrease in temperature when the rate of heat absorption during transformation exceeds the rate of heat input while heating metal through a transformation range On Sat., Jul. 13, 2019, 11:14 a.m. bobcook39...@hotmail.com, < bobcook39...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > > *Recalescence* is an increase in temperature > <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature> that occurs while cooling > metal <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal> when a change in structure > with an increase in entropy <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy> > occurs.
