hi,
how would i calculate heating up an object with oil?
the temperature of the oil is 100 degrees
the object mass is 48.40kg
temp to reach 100 degrees
starting temp of object is 50 degrees
oil is going through object so full contact
the equation to use to work out the power required for heating a circulating fluid:
Pch = (Qm × Cp ×(t2 − t1) × 1,2) ÷ 860
-Heating power : Pch (kW)
– Mass flow rate : Qm (kg/h)
– Specific heat of fluid : Cp (kcal/kg × °C)
– Inlet temperature : t1 (°C)
– Required outlet temperature : t2 (°C)...
I have a system which heats a fluid while in a constant flow in a loop
how would i calculate the energy used to heat the fluid in the looped system to the temperature set and the time to reach it
sorry if i put it in the wrong forum
thank you
