A "heat" question



I've noticed that this list group has a general aversion to using "heat" as a noun - a
position I agree with. In atmospheric physics, it is common to use terms like "sensible
heat" and "latent heat". What techniques have people on the list developed to deal with
these commonly accepted terms but still deal with heat as a transferring of energy?
