The law of conservation of energy is a foundational, universally accepted principle of physics stating that energy cannot be created or destroyed, and phase changes such as the evaporation of liquids obey this law completely. No citation is needed for this basic physical fact.
The claim asserts that standard thermodynamic phase changes (heating and cooling evaporating liquids) violate the law of conservation of energy. This directly contradicts established physics, making it fundamentally incorrect; however, the conservation of energy itself is a piece of common knowledge and everyday scientific observation that requires no special paper to establish its validity. The retrieved papers discuss unrelated topics such as quantum materials, phase change heat storage, and thermodynamics without providing any evidence that energy conservation is broken.
