The '''Poynting effect''' may refer to two unrelated physical phenomena. Neither should be confused with the [[Poynting–Robertson effect]]. All of these effects are named after [[John Henry Poynting]], an English physicist.

In thermodynamics, the Poynting effect generally refers to the change in the vapor pressure of a liquid when a non-condensable gas is mixed with the vapor at saturated conditions. If one assumes that the vapor and the non-condensable gas behave as ideal gases and an ideal mixture, it can be shown that:<ref>Wark, Kenneth ''Advanced Thermodynamics for Engineers''.

Line 23 ⟶ 19:
As a common example, the ability to combine [[nitrous oxide]] and [[oxygen]] at high [[pressure]] while remaining in the gaseous form is due to the Poynting effect.
 
[[Entonox]] is a 50:50 combination of the anesthetic gas [[nitrous oxide]] and [[oxygen]]. This combination is useful because it can provide a sufficient concentration of nitrous oxide to provide analgesia (pain relief) in sufficient oxygen so that the risk of [[hypoxemia]] is eliminated. This makes it safe to use by para-medical staff such as [[ambulance officers]]. However the ability to combine these two gases at the temperature and pressure in the cylinder while remaining in the gaseous form is unexpected based on the known properties of the two gases.
 
The Poynting effect involves the dissolution of gaseous O<sub>2</sub> when bubbled through liquid N<sub>2</sub>O, with vaporisation of the liquid to form a gaseous O<sub>2</sub>/N<sub>2</sub>O mixture.
