Rise of temperature of vessel, - - ° C. The number of heat-units required to raise the temperature of the vessel through a certain number of degrees is thus obtained, and from the result the number of heat- units required to raise the tempera- ture of the vessel through one* degree can be calculated. The result is called the ivater equiva- lent or water value of the vessel used, and has to be taken into consideration when exact measurements of heat quantity are made.
