Document Summary
Look at thermo properties of sensible and latent heat. Draw temp vs energy for water t-h diagram. Latent heat: add heat, but temp remains same (phase change) Sensible heat (aka specific heat) for water at 1 atm and room temp. About 20% for stovetop (about 70% for a hot water heater) Back to: $ to boil 1 gallon of water: Gallon of water is about 4 kg. Dow 50 bill a year about 50k employees, 6 sites in la.
