Calorimetry Simulator (Quenching Steel)

Steel Properties (Hot)

500 g
200 °C

Water Properties (Cold)

1000 g
20 °C

Equilibrium Results

Final Temperature ($T_f$)20.00 °C
Heat Transferred ($q$)40500 J
−qsteel=qwater-q_{steel} = q_{water}
−(mscsΔTs)=mwcwΔTw-(m_{s}c_{s}\Delta T_{s}) = m_{w}c_{w}\Delta T_{w}
−(500)(0.450)(Tf−200)=(1000)(4.184)(Tf−20)-(500)(0.450)(T_f - 200) = (1000)(4.184)(T_f - 20)
Tf=20.00∘CT_f = 20.00 ^\circ\text{C}
