The Enthalpy of Water Calculator measures the total energy change in water due to temperature variation and/or phase changes (like melting or vaporization). This is a vital tool in thermodynamics, químico engineering, HVAC systems, and environmental science. It helps users determine how much calor is absorbed or released when water is heated, cooled, evaporated, or condensed.

La calculadora es parte de la Heat Transfer and Phase Change Thermodynamics Calculator category and is valuable for lab analysis, industrial system design, and thermal energy calculations.

Formula of Enthalpy of Water Calculator

1. Sensible Heat (Enthalpy in a Single Phase)

H = m × c × ΔT

  • H = Enthalpy change (in joules or kilojoules)
  • m = Mass of water (in kg)
  • c = Calor especifico capacity of water = 4186 J/kg·°C
  • ΔT = Temperature change = Final temp − Initial temp (in °C)

This equation is used when water remains in one phase (solid, liquid, or gas) and only temperature changes.

2. Latent Heat (Phase Change Involved)

When water changes state (from ice to liquid, or liquid to vapor), use:

H = m × L

  • L = Latent heat (in J/kg):
    • For vaporization (liquid to gas): L = 2,260,000 J/kg
    • For fusion (solid to liquid): L = 334,000 J/kg

Latent heat refers to energy absorbed or released during phase transitions without temperature change.

3. Total Enthalpy of Water (Including Phase Change and Heating)

If both phase change and temperature variation are involve:

Total H = (m × L) + (m × c × ΔT)

This is applied step by step:

  • Use latent heat formula when water changes phase
  • Use sensible heat formula for temperature changes before or after the phase change

Example of Enthalpy of Water Calculator

Suppose you want to calculate how much energy is required to convert 2 kg of ice at 0°C into water at 50°C.

Step 1: Melt the ice

H₁ = m × L = 2 × 334,000 = 668,000 J = 668 kJ

Step 2: Heat the water from 0°C to 50°C

H₂ = m × c × ΔT = 2 × 4186 × 50 = 418,600 J = 418.6 kJ

Step 3: Total enthalpy

Total H = 668 + 418.6 = 1086.6 kJ

So, 1086.6 kJ of energy is required.

Preguntas frecuentes más comunes

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre calor sensible y latente?

Sensible heat changes the temperature of water without changing its phase. Latent heat causes a phase change (ice to liquid, liquid to gas) without a temperature change.

Can I use this calculator for steam or ice?

Yes. The calculator includes formulas for all three phases of water: ice (solid), liquid, and steam (gas), including phase transitions.

Why is the specific heat of water important?

Water has a high specific heat capacity, meaning it stores and absorbs more heat than many other substances. This is crucial for climate control, biological systems, and engineering.
