Undergrad Energy required to thaw one gallon of ice
Thanks NS... now that makes sense. So it's the same amount of electricity as running a 100 watt bulb for an hour. And at a 10 cents a KWH Guess I was hoping for more savings than a penny. Oh well. Thanks again!- eniwetok

Undergrad Energy required to thaw one gallon of ice
Not sure if the title does this question justice. My question how much energy in KWHs or a fraction thereof, could be saved in refrigerator operation if someone took a gallon of water, let it freeze solid outside during a 0F degree night, then placed it in their refrigerator until it thawed to...- eniwetok
