What amount of heat will be released during crystallization and subsequent cooling of 100 kg

What amount of heat will be released during crystallization and subsequent cooling of 100 kg of steel, if the initial steel temperature is 1400 ° C and the final temperature is 0 ° C?

The amount of heat released during cooling of the steel:

Q = Q1 + Q2.

Q1 = λ * m, where λ is the specific heat of melting of steel (λ = 0.84 * 10 ^ 5 J / (kg * K)), m is the mass (m = 100 kg).

Q2 = С * m * (tн – tк), where С – specific heat capacity of steel (С = 500 J / (kg * K)), tн – initial temperature (tн = 1400 ºС), tк – final temperature (tк = 0 ºС).

Q = Q1 + Q2 = λ * m + C * m * (tн – tк) = 0.84 * 10 ^ 5 * 100 + 500 * 100 * (1400 – 0) = 0.84 * 10 ^ 7 + 7 * 10 ^ 7 = 7.84 * 10 ^ 7 = 78.4 MJ.
