How long will it take to heat up a bathtub full of cold water

search his other threads, this guys is nuts.

I mean... good luck with that, citizendoug, continue to think outside the box
 
Umm... just turn on the hot water faucet.

Or put cold water in the tub. Get your biggest pot and boil the water, get it as hot as possible, then put it in the tub. You might have to have two potfuls, but it should heat up the tub to a good temp. Much more efficient and not wasteful.

well obviously the hot water heater is not working 😉


more efficient, yes

more fun, no
 
Is the heater electric?

You might get better results going in the tub and then submersing the heater in the water with you.

😉 just kidding.

LOL. good idea.
 
We'll need some measurements first. Then anybody who's taken basic differential equations can solve this (given that the water is mixed well enough such that the temperature is uniform).

I think it's a little late at night for anything like that 😉

i am actually just running a couple of powerful dehumidifiers in the room that expel enough heat to bring up the temperature. hopefully they do not suck all the water out of the tub.

i was thinking about putting my powermac in there too. you would not believe how hot these G5 processors get.


anyways i think most modern heaters are grounded 😉
