Calculate Heat Loss





Formula

The formula to calculate the heat loss is:

\[ q = (U \cdot A) \cdot \Delta T \]

Where:

Heat Loss Definition

Heat loss is defined as the total energy lost due to the transfer of heat between a hotter surface and a colder ambient area. It is an important factor in understanding energy efficiency and thermal insulation in buildings and other structures.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the heat loss:

\[ q = (1.5 \cdot 50) \cdot 20 = 1500 \text{ W} \]

The heat loss is 1500 W.
