Heat Transfer Calculator

Heat transfer (q):

Mass of substance (m):

Specific Heat Capacity (C_s):

Change in temperature (T):

How This Is Calculated

$$ q = m C_s \Delta T $$ where:

q = Heat transfer (J)

m = Mass of substance (kg)

C_s = Specific Heat Capacity (J/kgK)

Δ T = Change in temperature (K)

Assumptions

No phase change occurs.
Specific heat capacity remains constant.
Temperature distribution is uniform (there are no temperature gradients).
Heat loss to surroundings is negligible.
