                Latent/Sensible Heat extended definition. Latent and sensible heat are types of energy released or absorbed in the atmosphere. Latent heat is related to changes in phase between liquids, gases, and solids. Sensible heat is related to changes in temperature of a gas or object with no change in phase.

                @Sai.
Sensible heat means the change in temperature without change in phases.

                What is meant by humidification?

                Sensible heat from the liquid is removed and latent heat is added to gas.

                You are right & I agree with you @Nain.

                If we are unaware of the actual process (i.e) humidification and cooling, it is clear from the term "evaporative cooling" that the process must involve addiction of latent heat for evaporation and removal of sensible heat that is cooling.
