Viserion vaporizes ice
« on: February 11, 2021, 12:25:16 pm »


If we assume the zombie dragon vaporizes 5 kg of ice, then...

50g of ice requires 36490 calories to turn to steam, [1] which works out to 152674 joules. [2] 50g is 1/100 of 5 kg, so 15267400J are needed.

15267400J is just over 15 megajoules. That's 3.585 kgTNT. [3]
