Is that an OSHA approved hand over the face to keep from breathing the poisonous gas?

I’m kind of surprised it’s not hot enough to boil off all the water in that little bucket pretty quickly, bit obviously it isn’t.

I’m no lavatorial expert, but I’d guess the thermal conductivity of lava is relatively low. The high temp and high mass will keep it warm for a while, but water has a pretty high conductivity and capacity on its own. The agitation is distributing the heat too, well beyond the regular convection rate.

I would guess.

I’m not thinking that “lavatorial” is the correct word.

That conjures “lavatory”, which is something different.

For the science, yeah, more than enough water to cool the lava.

That’s just my experience. If someone does the math, I’ll love them.

Do what math? I honestly don’t know what you guy’s actually expect it to look like, so I don’t know where to start explaining.

Seriously? The lava in water math.

It’s high school stuff if you bother to look up the specific heat and make some reasonable guesses.

It’s masters degree in thermal fluids engineering math

I wasn’t insulting you intentionally.

You certainly can do the math. I’m too lazy to do it.

Do you want to?

How interesting.

I have a PhD.

I can’t say that what you claim your degree is in is total word salad because I had a textbook “advanced engineering mathematics” (the Greenberg one) in undergrad.

It’s just “engineering math” is weird.

Also, you are not part of this thread until this post.

No it’s not. Google specific heat of lava. Shit’s been done already.
Mate, I model thermal processes for a living. The question is: What is the question? What to calculate? What expectations are there to (dis)proof?

Bruh. Someone else on this thread has already clarified to you the easy and what I was expecting question: what happens to the water and lava in the water bucket.

You already answered that question in this thread.

“Bruh”, everyone knows what happens, we are looking at it in the video. Lava gets cold, water hot. Obviously. There is not much to go on about.
