Explanation:
We have 150kg of water at 18C and we want to raise the temperature to 50C.
We know that the energy required is:
ΔH = m•Cp•ΔT where m is mass, Cp is heat capacity and ΔT is temperature change.
Cp for water is 4.186kJ/kg
So, ΔH = 150(4.186)(50 – 18)
ΔH = 20,092.8kJ = 20.09MJ
20.09 megajoules sounds like a lot of energy, but think of it this way — if this is an electric heater, it is only 5.58kWh
