reheating
Microwaving yesterday's dinner
Reheating is warming food that has already been cooked and cooled: I'm just reheating last night's pizza.
The term also applies to industrial processes where metal is heated again before further working.
In aerospace, reheating refers to injecting additional fuel into a jet engine's exhaust for extra thrust—also called afterburning.
