Heat V's Temperature

This video takes a quick look at how we can measure the heat from a fire and the difference between temperature and heat

Great video, explained really well. Would be great if you could go into further detail about hrr. Thanks for your videos!

[@MattDavis5]

Thanks!! hopefully that will be coming in a video in the not too distant future (2024 sometime hopefully). There is some really interesting stuff to unpack with HRR!!

Yep 👍🏼

I'm surprised a sofa fire is 2.5 megawatts. That's like over 1000 electric fan heaters or a Bugatti Veyron engine at full tilt. Having said that from images they can burn pretty bright.

The Bugatti is an interesting comparison. Yes its a cool car with impressive engineering. But it is still burning petrol (oil derived hydrocarbons) to gain power. The couch is also made from alot of oil derived hydrocarbons (foam and plastic). So if you think less about the car and more about the fuel source and the timing of the energy release it makes a bit more sense 🙂
