FAQ

What is the Internal Heat Generation?
Internal Heat Generation is defined as the conversion of electrical, chemical, or nuclear energy into heat (or thermal) energy which leads to a rise in temperature throughout the medium. Internal Heat Generation is usually measured using the Watt Per Cubic Meter for Power Density. Note that the value of Internal Heat Generation is always positive.
Can the Internal Heat Generation be negative?
No, the Internal Heat Generation, measured in Power Density cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Internal Heat Generation?
Internal Heat Generation is usually measured using the Watt Per Cubic Meter[W/m³] for Power Density. Horsepower Per Litre[W/m³], Decawatt Per Cubic Meter[W/m³], Gigawatt Per Cubic Meter[W/m³] are the few other units in which Internal Heat Generation can be measured.
