v. t.
To throw in; to dart in; to force in; as, to inject cold water into a condenser; to inject a medicinal liquid into a cavity of the body; to inject morphine with a hypodermic syringe.
n.
An apparatus for measuring the capacity of condensers, or the inductive capacity of dielectrics.
n.
The standard unit of electrical capacity; the capacity of a condenser whose charge, having an electro-motive force of one volt, is equal to the amount of electricity which, with the same electromotive force, passes through one ohm in one second; the capacity, which, charged with one coulomb, gives an electro-motive force of one volt.
n.
A wig having a tie or ties, or one having some of the curls tied up; also, a wig tied upon the head.
n.
The condition of rarefaction, or reduction of pressure below that of the atmosphere, in a vessel, as the condenser of a steam engine, which is nearly exhausted of air or steam, etc.; as, a vacuum of 26 inches of mercury, or 13 pounds per square inch.
n.
The cold water thrown into a condenser.
n.
The separation of the volatile parts of a substance from the more fixed; specifically, the operation of driving off gas or vapor from volatile liquids or solids, by heat in a retort or still, and the condensation of the products as far as possible by a cool receiver, alembic, or condenser; rectification; vaporization; condensation; as, the distillation of illuminating gas and coal, of alcohol from sour mash, or of boric acid in steam.
n.
An apparatus, separate from the cylinder, in which the exhaust steam is condensed by the action of cold water or air. See Illust. of Steam engine.
n.
A lens or mirror, usually of short focal distance, used to concentrate light upon an object.
n.
One who, or that which, condenses.
v. t.

n.
An instrument for condensing air or other elastic fluids, consisting of a cylinder having a movable piston to force the air into a receiver, and a valve to prevent its escape.
n.
An apparatus for receiving and condensing the volatile products of distillation to a liquid or solid form, by cooling.
a.
Not condensing; discharging the steam from the cylinder at a pressure nearly equal to or above that of the atmosphere and not into a condenser.
n.
The condenser of a distilling apparatus.
n.
The act of throwing cold water into a condenser to produce a vacuum.
