Finnish saunas can reach temperatures as high as 130 - 140
degrees Celcius - which extreme sauna enthusiasts can tolerate in
short bursts of 3 - 4 minutes. Calculate the heat required to
convert a 0.8 kg block of ice, brought in from an outside
temperature of -8 degrees Celcius, to steam at
104.0 degrees Celcius in the sauna. [The specific heat
capacity of water vapour is 1.996 kJ/kg/K; see the lecture notes
for the other specific heat capacities and specific latent
heats].
