Helium Rain
GRAVITATIONAL HEATING
Helium Precipitation
Deep inside Saturn, helium condenses into liquid droplets that "rain" down through the lighter hydrogen, releasing massive amounts of potential energy as heat.
Hotter than the Sun's surface.
Converted from sinking mass.

GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL
As helium droplets fall toward the core, they release gravitational potential energy which is converted into thermal energy via friction.
INTERNAL HEATIMMISCIBILITY
At temperatures below ~10,000 K and high pressure, H and He separate like oil and water. This is the "Immiscibility Gap."
METALLIC HYDROGENLUMINOSITY EXCESS
This process explains why Saturn is 2x brighter in the infrared than it should be. It generates more internal heat than Jupiter per unit mass.
