← Back to context Comment by Bendy 10 hours ago Only if the resistive heater in question is DC or AC with reactive power compensation 7 comments Bendy Reply ruperthair 9 hours ago A purely resistive heater, by definition, has no reactive component so there's no reactive power considerer.The 0.1% mentioned might be the light that the project produces. choo-t 8 hours ago Assuming you're not in an endless vacuum, the light will also become heat. stymaar 8 hours ago I think it's fair to separate it from the direct heat generation because if you look at second order effects like that, pretty much all of the energy ends up being radiated away as infrared in space. 3 replies → ruperthair 8 hours ago Nice point! Would it be the same for sound that doesn't escape a room?
