Specific Energy

This function calculates the gravimetric energy density or specific energy.

The specific energy is a measure of the energy per mass of a substance (SI unit: joule per kilogram).

For the calculation, use the radio button to select which parameter is to be calculated. Then enter the required values and click the 'Calculate' button.

Formulas for specific energy

\(\displaystyle Specific\;energy\;[J/kg]=\frac{Energie\;[J]}{Masse\;[kg]}\)

\(\displaystyle Specific \ energy \ \ w=\frac{E}{m}\)

\(\displaystyle Energy \ \ E=w· m\)

\(\displaystyle Mass \ \ m=\frac{E}{w}\)
