Characteristic length is the ratio of volume of the body to cross-sectional area perpendicular to the direction of heat flow.Ls=characteristic length.Ls=V/A.
mass transfer coefficient in f&k type
The applications are in transport phenomena, in determining the direction of flow in momentum transport, heat transfer, and mass flux.
Formed into a mass by heat and pressure
A closed system is termed as a control mass because it does not exchange mass with its surroundings. This means that no mass enters or leaves the system, and therefore the total mass within the system remains constant. This allows for the analysis of the system's energy changes and thermodynamic processes in isolation, making it a control mass for studying energy transfers and conservation.
I would hardly call it "resist" but these changes are changes of state, and there has to be a heat transfer to or from the surroundings. This heat is called "latent heat". To go from liquid to solid (ice), heat has to be transferred away (by a wind for example). To go from liquid to gas (vapor, steam) heat has to be supplied (hot air, sun's radiation for example). These heat changes can take time.
Heat transfer deals with the movement of heat and temperature gradients. The three types of heat transfer are conduction, convection, and radiation. Mass transfer deals with concentrations of a particular substance. Types of mass transfer include diffusion and convection.

Heat is transferred based on the temperature of a mass (relative to the cooler mass it is transferring heat to) and the heat capacity of the mass. The total heat capacity is a product of the mass and the specific heat, i.e. Heat capacity = mass x specific heat. The hotter the mass, the more heat it can transfer. The greater the mass, the more heat it can transfer per degree of temperature drop. 100 kg of boiling water could be expected to be able to transfer 100 times the amount of heat of just 1 kg of boiling water for a drop of 1 °C.

The mass of material affects the amount of heat it can transfer because more mass typically means more particles available to carry heat energy. Therefore, a larger mass of material is generally able to transfer more heat compared to a smaller mass.
Heat transfer from a substance with a higher mass to one with a lower mass occurs due to the difference in their thermal energies. The substance with higher mass has more thermal energy to transfer to the one with lower mass, resulting in heat transfer to achieve thermal equilibrium.

Latent Heat is the amount of heat transfer during a phase change, like when ice melts or liquid water boils to steam. The temperature is constant during this change. The amount of heat depends on the particular substance and the mass of substance. The units of Latent Heat property are something like calories per gram, or kiloJoules/kg. So it is Energy over mass. Since energy is (force)*(length) which is (mass)*(length^2) / (time^2), dividing by mass leaves us with (Length^2) / (Time^2), or (Velocity)^2, which is interesting.
