Hello there,
to find the Calorific value of any kind of fuel, it is measured via heating water.
the equation used is,
Q = m x s x t
m = mass of water in grams
s = specific heat of water = 4.2.J/gm x °C
t = rise in temperature of the water.
i want to know , how the value of 4.2.J/gm x °C is obtained for water.
please ,let me know the exact derivation behind it.
or give me link,from where i can get the information.
--------- advance thanks.------------
please make me clear
