Generally melting is a warming process because whatever is being melted absorbs latent heat to change states from solid to liquid or liquid to gas. An exact figure can't be given because the amount of latent heat depends not only on the substance but also on the pressure. The latent heat required to melt ice to water is ABOUT 336kj/kg (kilojoules per kilogram). There are exceptions such as gases and liquids at the what is called the critical point or triple point.
