Using basic theory and this calculator, you can quickly find the answers to the specific heat equation by solving for any variable in any units. Heat capacity or thermal capacity is a measurable physical quantity equal to the ratio of the heat added to (or removed from) an object to the ...
Here’s a quick example: Let’s say we need 6000 J of heat to heat up 3 kg of substance for 10K. Here’s how we calculate the specific heat capacity using the equation above; C = 6000J ÷ (3kg × 10K) = 200 J/kg×K
How is Heat Power Calculated? The heat power (Q) is calculated using the fundamental heat transfer equation: Q = m × Cp ×ΔT Where: Q = Heat power (Watts or Joules per second) m = Mass flow rate of the fluid (kg/s) Cp = Specific heat capacity of the fluid (J/kg·K) ΔT...

Given: 24.8 g metal, 275 J of energy, 20.2 C to 24.5 C Need: J/g C Plan: SH = Heat/g C ΔT = 24.5 C – 20.2 C = 4.3 C Set Up: 275 J = 2.6 J/g C (24.8 g)(4.3 C) 8 Heat Equation Rearranging the specific heat expression gives the ...
Nitrogen Gas - Specific Heat vs. Temperature Specific heat of Nitrogen Gas - N2 - at temperatures ranging 175 - 6000 K Non-ideal gas - Van der Waal's Equation and Constants The van der Waals constants for more than 200 gases used to correct for non-ideal behavior of gases caused by int...
Moldoveanu, and Minea [52] conducted an experimental study to develop a single equation for the estimation of the specific heat of three different unitary and two different hybrid nanofluids, see Table 4.5. They performed their experiments for Al2O3, SiO2, and TiO2 nanoparticles and their hybrid...
of its temperature changes when a certain amount of heat is supplied to it. It can be defined as the amount of heat absorbed or released per unit mass of the substance to change its temperature by one unit. The specific heat capacity is mathematically represented by the following equation. ...
then heat capacity is given in calories/degree C or in joules/degree C. Change in thermal energy = (Heat capacity) x (Change in Temperature) (Equation 6.1) Q = H cap x T where Q = heat added or subtracted (calories or joules) H cap = heat capacity (calories/ o C or joules/ o...
