तातो पानीको ऊर्जा हिसाबPlan hot-water energy
गिजरले पानी तताउन कति समय र पैसा लिन्छ?How long and how much will your geyser take to heat water?
पानीको litre, सुरु र चाहिएको तापक्रम, heater watt र heat loss राख्नुहोस्। एक पटकको समय, unit र खर्चसँगै महिनाको अनुमान देखिन्छ।Enter water volume, starting and target temperatures, heater watts, and heat loss. See time, energy, cost per heat, and a monthly estimate.
तताउने नतिजाHeating estimate
पानीको वास्तविक mass, voltage, thermostat cycle, tank मा बाँकी तातो पानी, standing loss, pipe loss र scale ले नतिजा बदल्छ। Heat-loss input अनुमान हो। Measured plug energy उपलब्ध भए त्यसलाई प्राथमिकता दिनुहोस्।Actual water mass, voltage, thermostat cycling, leftover hot water, standing loss, pipe loss, and scale change the result. The heat-loss input is an estimate. Prefer measured electrical energy when available.

हिसाब कसरी हुन्छ?How the calculation works
पानीको mass, specific heat र तापक्रमको फरकले ideal heat दिन्छ। Loss को भाग काटेपछि heater बाट चाहिने input energy आउँछ।Water mass, specific heat, and temperature rise give the ideal heat. Dividing by the useful fraction after losses gives the required heater input energy.
water mass kg ≈ water litres × 1 kg/Ltemperature rise = target °C − starting °Cideal heat kJ = mass kg × 4.184 kJ/(kg·°C) × temperature riseideal heat kWh = ideal heat kJ ÷ 3,600input kWh = ideal heat kWh ÷ (1 − heat loss %)heating time hours = input kWh ÷ heater kWcost per cycle = input kWh × entered Rs/kWhmonthly cost = cost per cycle × heating cycles
1 litre पानीलाई 1 kg मानिएको छ। यो घरायसी planning approximation हो। Water density तापक्रमसँग अलि बदलिन्छ।One litre of water is approximated as one kilogram for household planning. Water density varies slightly with temperature.

नमुना हिसाबWorked example
25 L पानीलाई 15°C बाट 55°C पुर्याउने, 2,000 W heater, 10% heat loss, Rs 10/kWh र महिनामा 30 cycle को नमुना लिऔं। Loss र दर दुवै उदाहरण मात्र हुन्।Take 25 L of water heated from 15°C to 55°C by a 2,000 W heater, with 10% heat loss, Rs 10/kWh, and 30 cycles per month. Both the loss and rate are illustrative.

- OpenStax Chemistry 2e, Energy Basics, checked 10 Sep 2026. The Rice University textbook gives
q = c × m × ΔTand liquid-water specific heat as 4.184 J/(g·°C), equal to 4.184 kJ/(kg·°C). - NIST Guide to the SI, Appendix B.9, checked 10 Sep 2026. NIST lists 1 kWh = 3.6 MJ, or 3,600 kJ.
- US Department of Energy, 2023 water-heater test procedure final rule, checked 10 Sep 2026. The procedure calculates water-heating energy from withdrawn water mass, specific heat, temperature rise, and recovery efficiency.
- IEC 60379:2023, electric storage water-heater performance, checked 10 Sep 2026. It specifies performance measurement methods for household electric storage water heaters.
- AEPC, Standards and Labeling, checked 10 Sep 2026. Nepal's AEPC lists electric geysers among appliances studied for energy-efficiency standards.
- UK Health and Safety Executive, Scalding and burning, updated 14 Nov 2024 and checked 10 Sep 2026. Its care-setting guidance warns that hot water, especially above 44°C, can scald vulnerable users. This is safety context, not a Nepal installation rule.
- Nepal Electricity Authority, Consumer Tariff Rates, checked 10 Sep 2026. Enter the rate applicable to added units on your current bill rather than treating one rate as valid for every user.
Specific heat र kWh conversion बाहेक 1 kg/L, 10% loss, 2,000 W, Rs 10/kWh र 30 cycle सबै नमुना input हुन्। आफ्नो temperature मापन, nameplate, bill र प्रयोगअनुसार बदल्नुहोस्।Apart from the cited specific heat and kWh conversion, 1 kg/L, 10% loss, 2,000 W, Rs 10/kWh, and 30 cycles are example inputs. Replace them with your measurements, nameplate, bill, and actual use.
