What is the heat capacity of liquid propane?
It depends on the temperature and pressure.
Why do propane tanks stay cool when the burner is on?
Because the propane in the tank is mostly liquid and as the propane gas at the top of the tank is removed to be burned the liquid propane must evaporate to replace it. Evaporating a liquid requires heat, which the liquid takes from things around it. The tank is in closest contact with the liquid propane, so it cools fastest.
1.5 kg of fuel is burned at a bbq how much heat is released in kcal using propane?
((1.5 x 1000)/molecular weight of propane) x molar heat of combustion of propane.
How much would it cost to heat a 1500 square foot home with propane?
The cost to heat a 1500 square foot home with propane will vary depending on the efficiency of your heating system, local propane prices, and your home's insulation. On average, it can cost anywhere from $1,200 to $3,000 per year to heat a home of this size with propane.
Is a propane space heater cost effective as a supplemental heat?
Yes, a propane space heater can be cost-effective as a supplemental heat source because propane tends to be more efficient and less expensive than electricity. However, the overall cost-effectiveness will depend on factors such as the price of propane in your area, the size and insulation of your space, and how often you use the heater.
What is the cost comparison between propane and electric heat?
The cost comparison between propane and electric heat depends on factors such as energy efficiency, fuel prices, and equipment. Generally, propane heat tends to be more expensive than electric heat due to higher fuel costs. However, the efficiency of the heating system and regional fuel prices can impact the overall cost comparison. It is recommended to compare specific costs in your area to determine the most cost-effective option for your heating needs.
how much would a propane heat cost for a two bedroom apartment in maryland?
The approximate cost would be about $60.00 per month.
What do you call the amount of energy needed to change a material from a solid to a liquid. propane or water?
The amount of energy needed to change a material from a solid to a liquid is called the latent heat of fusion. This value differs for different substances, but for water, it is 334 joules per gram, while for propane it is 93 joules per gram.
What are contents of cooking lpg and autogas?
LPG means Liquid propane gas. This is simply a combustible heat source that can be used for cooking.
How is natural gas better than LPG?
Without getting into the chemistry and physics of the two different types of gases, natural gas has a higher btu output than liquid propane gas. In other words, higher available energy output/more energy efficient. MMM wrong!!! Propane provides more energy per unit volume than does natural gas. Heat is measured in BTUs, or British Thermal Units. Propane provides about 2500 BTUs for the same volume of natural gas that only gives 1000 BTUs. However, natural gas can be less expensive at up to one-sixth the cost of propane
Is Propane considered Pyrotechnics or Liquid fuel?
propane is a product of crude oil and can also be found naturally within the earth. it is used as a refridgerant, and as fuel in heat producing appliances, and also for pyrotecnic effect of varrious designs
Does cold affect propane?
Yes and no. Propane is very nonreactive by itself (except when burned in oxygen). The temperature that propane is at doesn't effect it's properties. Also, propane has a very low freezing point (-188°C) so it won't freeze when it gets cold. However, when using propane for a stove, etc., cold can affect how well it works. A propane tank is full of liquid propane under pressure. When it is being used, the liquid first has to vaporize to a gas, where it can then be burned. Because it takes a lot of heat for the liquid to vaporize into a gas, cold weather can slow down the flow. If this is a problem, the propane tank can be placed in a bucket of lukewarm water so that heat is available for the propane to vaporize.
