I want to heat a small reservoir filled with water. I want to find out how long it will take to heat the water from a specific temperature to a specific temperature.
random example.
The continuous power source is 720 watts
The Initial temp is -40c
The Final temp is 70c
No heat loss.
Water...
Hmm so I feel like I'm missing something.
I'll just make something up.
540w source.
0 Heat loss through storage:
Initial temperature of oil: -40
Final temp: 70 degrees
Qnet = Made up
Time = Made up
Qnet is in what units or, what is it exactly? Where do I make up a qnet number so that I can...
Types of metals, plastics and others like fiber glass.
Also I have another question.
How do I calculate how long it takes to heat liquid up with different amounts of energy.
Say from -40c, how long does it take to heat oil to 71c with a 120volts. This is bare bones, but I just want to know...
