Calculate heat production (default parameters are from the Sybella Batholith)
Enter K20 in weight%, Th and U in ppm, rho (density) in kg/m3,
and T (time) in Ma.
Make sure you press the "return" key after entering new values in eachtext field!
Note : 40K contribution
in red line, 232Th
contribution in green
line, and combined 238U and
235U in
blue line.
The heat production calculations performed in this applet are outlined in Turcotte & Schubert (1982, p.140) .
