what is the melting point of spessartite garnets under normal atmospheric pressure, and what would be the melting point and the fusion point of spessartite under 2000 psi.
Water at ambient atmospheric pressure boils at 100C. One way of raising the boiling point is to raise the surrounding pressure. If you raise the pressure surrounding the water to about 93 psi above atmospheric, it will boil at about 170C. Do not try this at home! Boiling water at this pressure is extremely dangerous and can severely burn you.

Although we usually see water boiling at close to 760 mm Hg (14.7 psi) and 100oC it will boil at almost any appropriate combination of temperature and pressure up to the critical point of water at 373,94oC and 22,060 kPa.
(It has a melting point of-150.7 degrees Fahrenheit and a boiling of -29.27 degrees Fahrenheit.) Chlorine Melting point is 172 Kelvin (which is also its freezing point) Chlorine's boiling point is 239 Kelvin (which is also its condensing point) For reference, water freezes at 273 Kelvin and boils at 373 Kelvin. This means that chlorine will remain a gas until quite cold temperature of about negative 34 degrees centigrade. Those numbers above are valid under atmosphere pressure 14.7 PSI As soon as pressure changes, especially when Cl2 is being transferred through piping, boiling point ( condensing point) will also go higher. For example; Cl2 is in gas form at 25 PSI if temperature is 24F (-4C , or 268K ) If you increase the pressure in your pipe up to 65 PSI for transferring to further points then CL2 gas condenses (liquiifies) in the pipe. Reason is condensing temperature at 65 PSI is 54F (12C , or 285K)
The 121 degree temperature is maintained by the pressure itself, if the pressure were to drop bellow 15psi then the boiling point of the water would drop, and the temperature would fall. The boiling point of water is affected by pressure, the more pressure the higher the boiling point, hence a higher temperature.
Yes. Water boils at 212 degrees. A 50/50 mix of water and antifreeze boils at 223 degrees. The temperature of the coolant can sometimes reach 250 to 275 F (121 to 135 C). Even with ethylene glycol added, these temperatures would boil the coolant, so something additional must be done to raise its boiling point. The cooling system uses pressure to further raise the boiling point of the coolant. Just as the boiling temperature of water is higher in a pressure cooker, the boiling temperature of coolant is higher if you pressurize the system. Most cars have a pressure limit of 14 to 15 pounds per square inch (psi), which raises the boiling point another 45 F (25 C) so the coolant can withstand the high temperatures. Antifreeze also contains additives to resist corrosion.
