How Long Does It Take To Raise The Temperature Of 100L Water To 10 Degrees?

For example :

The power of electric heating tube is required to heat 100kg water from the initial water temperature of 10 ℃ to 60 ℃ in 60mins (3600s)?

Normal specific heat capacity of water: 4.2kJ/(kg·℃);

Temperature difference: 60-10=50℃

Required power(kw)=The water weight(kg) * Temperature difference * Specific heat capacity of water (kJ/(kg·℃)) / Time (s);

The thermal power is calculated by substituting it into the formula =100*50*4.2/3600≈5.8KW.

The power value of electric heating element can be obtained by dividing different electric heating forms by a certain thermal efficiency coefficient (such as 0.8-0.9).

Time required for every 10 ℃ rise of power corresponding to common water tank capacity:

Water tank capacity / Power 3KW 6KW 9KW 12KW 15KW
100L 25-30min 12-15min 8-10min 6-7min 5-6min
200L 50-60min 25-30min 16-20min 12-14min 10-12min
300L 36-45min 24-30min 18-21min 15-18min
500L 40-50min 30-35min 25-30min
Water tank capacity / Power 15KW 30KW 50KW 60KW 90KW
1000L 50-60min 25-30min 15-18min 12-15min 8-10min
2000L 50-60min 30-36min 24-30min 16-20min
3000L 45-54min 36-45min 24-30min
5000L 60-75min 40-50min

The above table is for closed water tank, not applicable to fluid and thermal circulation system; the default water tank is full water state, if not, it should be converted according to the actual capacity.
