User Guide
Use this calculator to determine the change in temperature of a substance ΔT=Q/C in kelvin (K), degrees Celsius (°C), degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or degrees Rankine (°R) units, from the total heat or thermal energy transferred and its heat capacity.
Formula
The formula used by this calculator to determine the change in temperature from the transference of heat and the heat capacity is:
ΔT = Q / C
Symbols
- ΔT = Temperature change
- Q = Heat transferred
- C = Heat capacity
Heat Transferred (Q)
This is the total heat or thermal energy transferred.
Heat Capacity (C)
This is the amount of thermal energy required to raise a substance or material by one unit of temperature.
Temperature Change (ΔT)
This is the total change in temperature caused by the transfer of heat.
