used to heat the aluminum block. The heater is essentially a resistor that generates heat by the principle of Joule’s Law in which a current running through a resistor converts electrical energy into heat energy. Joule heating can be expressed by the relationship Q = I2 * R * t where Q is the heat (J) generated by a constant current I (A) flowing through a conductor of resistance R (Ω) for a given time t. [1] Although electric resistance heating converts nearly 100% of the electricity to heat‚ the overall
