Latent Heat of Fusion in Laser Beam Machining (LBM) Formulas

The Latent Heat of Fusion is the amount of heat required to convert one unit amount of substance from the solid phase to the liquid phase — leaving the temperature of the system unaltered. And is denoted by L_fusion. Latent Heat of Fusion is usually measured using the Joule per Kilogram for Latent Heat. Note that the value of Latent Heat of Fusion is always positive.
