The total destruction radius is about 2 feet, so the yield is about 0.1 lb, or 40g. [1] (Conservative estimate.)

By radius: to have a radius for total destruction of about 1 meter, you need about 0.1 pounds of TNT, or 45 grams.

By destruction: given that the blast vaporized about 40g of bone, if we assume that bone requires about 3MJ/kg to vaporize, [1] then the yield is about 0.12MJ, 120000J, or 28.6gTNT.




[1]: This is a guess.

Skrill lightning blast
« Reply #6 on: February 10, 2021, 01:45:30 pm »


To create a blast that damages everything within 1 meter requires 0.01 pounds (4 grams) of TNT. [1]

Okay, that seems... low. Let's try by destruction. To pulverize 7080 cc of rock requires 1515120 J, or 362g of TNT. [2]

Viserion vaporizes ice
« Reply #7 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]

Drogon melts the Iron Throne
« Reply #8 on: February 12, 2021, 12:19:45 pm »


If we assume that the Iron Throne weighs 3567 kg (calculated from a block of iron 2 x 2 x 4 feet), then it will require 4565.76MJ to melt. That's 1091kgTNT. [1]

Yeah, I accidentally did this one in real life figures. Maybe I'll fix that sometime. For now, just divide everything by 14 to get an approximate answer. Here is the RW version:

Iron Throne's weight = .1007744 kilograms.

Therefore, it will require 0.768908672 megajoules to melt, or 0.183773583174 kgTNT.

Smaug heats rock
« Reply #9 on: February 21, 2021, 06:37:00 pm »


Smaug seems to heat maybe 300g of rock (which we'll assume is granite) by about maybe 980K. The specific heat capacity of granite is 0.790 J/g K.

0.790 x 980 x 300 = 232260 joules

232260J is 232.26KJ. Given that that's just a tiny fraction of the area of his breath, it's pretty impressive.

Toothless blasts rock
« Reply #10 on: March 03, 2021, 09:19:38 pm »
https://imgur.com/a/lxbkwx5

Toothless fragments about 720 cc of rock. The fragmentation energy of rock is 8 J/cc.
720 x 8 = 5760 J
5760 J is 1.376673040153 gTNT.

Wood destruction
« Reply #11 on: March 04, 2021, 03:16:47 pm »
https://imgur.com/a/n0X8ngC

In the third gif, Toothless violently fragments about 3000 cc of wood. If we assume that the wood is Eastern White pine, then it requires 6.2053 J/cc to violently fragment.

3000 x 6.2053 = 18615.9

18615.9 J is 4.4493068833652 gTNT.

What if we take into account the fact that some of the wood was likely pulverized? Therefore, let's say that 1500 cc were violently fragmented, and 1500 cc were pulverized.

Fragmentation:
1500 x 6.2053 = 9307.95

Pulverization:
1500 x 33.0948 = 49642.2

Add them together:
9307.95 + 49642.2 = 58950.15 joules, or ~14 grams of TNT.

The second blast has a total destruction radius of about a quarter of a meter, so it's probably about 0.01 pounds, or 4.5 grams, or 18828 joules, or low-end Wall level.[1]

Thunderdrum "sonic blast"

Short-tailed voles weigh up to 50 grams. There are eight of them, and they change velocity by maybe 1.5 m/s at most.

KE = 1/2mv2 = (0.5)(0.4)(1.52) = 0.45 joules

This is minimum, as they didn't take all the energy.
