Engineering Information
Heat Requirement Calculations
Use these equations to help size the heaters needed for your situation. | Thermal Properties of Materials
In order to calculate the heat required for your application you will require the thermal properties (specific heat, heat of fusion, heat of vapourization) of the materials you are using. This section contains values for most common solids, liquids and gases. | Heat Loss from Surfaces and Walls
Heat loss from surfaces and walls should be taken into account in heat requirement calculations. This section contains information on the heat loss from insulated and uninsulated walls as well as from the surface of liquids. | Wattage Required to Heat Liquids and Gases
This section contains the formulas for heating liquids and gases which are flowing. Results are the power requirement in Kilowatts to heat the flowing fluid. | Air Density Table
Air Density changes with temperature and pressure. This section includes a table of air density as a function of T and P. | Choosing Between a Blower and Compressed Air
Blow-off of water, dust, coolant, and other contaminants, drying, and cooling can all be achieved using either compressed air or blower operated systems. While similar results will be seen from either option, there are several factors to consider when choosing the best system for any application utilizing air. |
