Latent Heat Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Latent Heat = Heat/Mass
LH = Q/m
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Latent Heat - (Measured in Joule) - Latent Heat is the heat that increases the specific humidity without a change in temperature.
Heat - (Measured in Joule) - Heat is the form of energy that is transferred between systems or objects with different temperatures (flowing from the high-temperature system to the low-temperature system).
Mass - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass is the quantity of matter in a body regardless of its volume or of any forces acting on it.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Heat: 570 Joule --> 570 Joule No Conversion Required
Mass: 35.45 Kilogram --> 35.45 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

LH = Q/m --> 570/35.45

Evaluating ... ...

LH = 16.0789844851904

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

16.0789844851904 Joule --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

16.0789844851904 ≈ 16.07898 Joule <-- Latent Heat

Saturated Mixture Specific Enthalpy

Go Saturated Mixture Specific Enthalpy = Fluid Specific Enthalpy+Vapour Quality*Latent Heat of Vaporization

Specific Heat at Constant Volume

Go Molar Specific Heat Capacity at Constant Volume = Heat Change/(Number of Moles*Temperature Change)

Sensible Heat Factor

Go Sensible Heat Factor = Sensible Heat/(Sensible Heat+Latent Heat)

Specific Heat

Go Specific Heat = Heat*Mass*Temperature Change

Latent Heat Formula

Latent Heat = Heat/Mass
LH = Q/m

Define latent heat?

Latent heat, energy absorbed or released by a substance during a change in its physical state that occurs without changing its temperature. The latent heat associated with melting a solid or freezing a liquid is called the heat of fusion; that associated with vaporizing a liquid or a solid or condensing a vapour is called the heat of vaporization. The latent heat is normally expressed as the amount of heat per mole or unit mass of the substance undergoing a change of state.

How to Calculate Latent Heat?

Latent Heat calculator uses Latent Heat = Heat/Mass to calculate the Latent Heat, Latent heat is defined as the heat or energy that is absorbed or released during a phase change of a substance. Latent Heat is denoted by LH symbol.

How to calculate Latent Heat using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Latent Heat, enter Heat (Q) & Mass (m) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Latent Heat calculation can be explained with given input values -> 16.07898 = 570/35.45.

FAQ

What is Latent Heat?

Latent heat is defined as the heat or energy that is absorbed or released during a phase change of a substance and is represented as LH = Q/m or Latent Heat = Heat/Mass. Heat is the form of energy that is transferred between systems or objects with different temperatures (flowing from the high-temperature system to the low-temperature system) & Mass is the quantity of matter in a body regardless of its volume or of any forces acting on it.

How to calculate Latent Heat?

Latent heat is defined as the heat or energy that is absorbed or released during a phase change of a substance is calculated using Latent Heat = Heat/Mass. To calculate Latent Heat, you need Heat (Q) & Mass (m). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Heat & Mass and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
