"Watt" is a rate of moving energy. The more watts you use, the faster the water

will heat up. The fewer watts you use, the slower it will heat. If you can afford

the time to wait, then any amount of power will do the job, no matter how small.

How many watts are required to heat one gallon of water one degree?

2.4705 watts/hour


How many watts are required to raise 1 gallon of water 1 degree F?

1 gallon of water is 4540 cc and 1 degree F is 0.555 degrees C, so raising 4540 cc of water by 0.555 degree C would take 4540x0.555 calories, or 2520 calories. Multiply by 4.2 to convert to joules which gives 10590 joules. Therefore the energy required is 10590 joules which is the same as 10590 watt-seconds. That could be done by 100 watts in 105.9 seconds, or 1000 watts in 10.59 seconds.


How many watts of heat to raise 55.32 gallons of water to 160 degrees?

A watt is a unit of power: what is required is probably the amount of energy - which is measured in joules.


Watts vs amps?

Watts= rate of using energy Amps= current flow Think of it as a bucket of water with a hole in it. Watts is the amount of water leaking from the bucket (1 gallon) Amps is the size of the hole ( it took 3 minutes for that 1 gallon to leak out of the bucket)

How do you convert from dBm to dBi?

Well, the question your asking is basically impossible. It's like asking to convert a gallon of water into cans of pop. It is possible to convert the gallon of water into cans of water not soda. So you can convert dBm to watts, not dBi.

How many watts in 5200 btu?

0.29308323563892147 watts per btu there for 5200 btu = 1524.0328253223915 watts 1 watt=3.412Btu/hr 1 Btu=the amount of energy needed to heat 1 Lb of water 1 degree. A gallon of water weighs aprox. 8 Lbs.


How many watts does it take to convert all of a half gallon of water at 55 degrees to 100 percent steam in less than 24 hours so that there's no more water left?

57.73 watt-hours load for 24 hours It takes about 1 Kw of electricity to produce 3.5 lbs of steam from and at 212 F That is 970.2 btu of heat for every 286 watts. 1/2 gallon of water is 4.17 lbs of water. to raise the temperature and convert 1 lb to steam at 100% quality requires 1127.2 btu. for 4.17 lbs that is ~4700 btu. dividing that by 970.2btu/286w = ~1386 watts of energy needed. dividing that by 24 hours will give you a continuous load of 57.73 watt-hours for 24 hours to evaporate 1/2 gallon of water, exclusive of heat losses.

How many watts of energy are in a gallon of salt water?

A watt is a unit of power (Joules/second: energy / time). I guess it depends on what method you are using to get energy out of the water, as to how much energy is in it.
