I have discovered something that will change the way we heat our homes and water. Gas and Oil Furnaces / Hot Water Heaters will become obsolete, and Incandescent Light Bulbs will still be in use in 1000 years! In a nutshell; I have discovered that Incandescent Light Bulbs (Fluorescent as well) produce approximately 1100% THE HEAT of regular Electric Heaters (such as Ceramic Heaters) per Watt of Electricity! I performed this experiment -- three times over -- using a 100 Watt Light Bulb and a 1500 Watt Ceramic Heater. Each time the Bulb & Heater were turned on for 30 Seconds. They were contained in a sealed cardboard box (40x32x33 cm) with a Thermometer inserted through the top. The box was opened to cool in between tests. A picture of my experiment box is below. Here are the results in Degrees Celsius (Start Temp. --> Finish Temp.):
Light Bulb
1st 19.50 --> 21.75 . +2.25
2nd 19.75 --> 22.25 . +2.5
3rd 19.75 --> 22.25 ...+2.5
Heater ......(Adjusted Temp.) (Increase in Temp.)
1st 19.75 --> 22.75 . +3 ... (+3.13) ... (+39%)
2nd 19.75 --> 23.0 .. +3.25 .. (+3.30) ... (+32%)
3rd 20.50 --> 23.75 . +3.25 .. (+3.32) ... (+33%)
The Voltage for the Light Bulb was about 116.8V, and for the Heater was 111.8V, 115V & 114.5V. I therefore adjust the Heater Voltages to 116.8V which gives an increase in temperature of 3.13, 3.30 & 3.32 Degrees Celsius for the three Heater tests. This amounts to the Heater producing 39%, 32% & 33% more heat than the Light Bulb. Since the Bulb is 100W and the Heater is 1500W, I divided the increase in temperature for the Heater by 15, and then divided that into the increase in temperature for the Bulb. The result is that the Bulb produced 10.78, 11.36 & 11.30 TIMES AS MUCH HEAT as the Heater per Watt of Electricity.
I've already quit using my Electric Heater in favour of 100W Bulbs, and I can attest how much less my Gas Furnace is running. It simply will no longer make sense to heat using Gas and Oil which will be more expensive than Light Bulb heat. This will bring a substantial change to human society. Even before I performed this experiment I knew that a Light Bulb would produce more heat than a Heater per Watt of Electricity based upon a new theory I have regarding what Energy / Heat is. I'm not going to get into that theory right now, but when an Electron pops to form a Photon, what is taking place is the fission of an Electron just like you have the fission of a Quark in an atomic reaction. An Electric Heater is not producing this fission, but only a small release of the Electron's energy. This is why a Light Bulb produces about 1100% as much heat. I'll take your questions on this experiment.
