Hey All,
Maybe a silly question, but... Is there a limit to how much a certain element can heat a body of air, say a room or an oven?
Maybe more clear with an example.
If i had a candle lit in the corner of my room for ever, would the temperature of the room continuously rise (slowly) until it reached the temperature of the flame?
What would the limiting factor be? The temperature of the flame? The size of the flame? The size of the room?
(Assuming there was not heat loss from the room...)
