Heat of Fusion

The heat of fusion is the energy absorbed during melting at constant temperature.

Formula

Q = m * L_f

where L_f is the specific latent heat of fusion. For water/ice, L_f = 334,000 J/kg = 334 kJ/kg.

Example Calculation

Melting 1 kg of ice at 0°C.

  1. 01Q = m * Lf
  2. 02Q = 1 * 334000
  3. 03Q = 334,000 J = 334 kJ
