Equipment:
* 1 Blender
* 3 cups of room-temperature Water
* 1 water-proof thermometer
Instructions:
1. Put one cup of room-temperature water into a blender.
2. Measure the temperature before you turn on the blender.
3. Turn on the blender for 60-seconds (it needs to have the lid on, pressure is the key).
4. Measure the temperature again.
My first results:
Trial 1 results: Start = 18 degrees Celsius, End = 22 degrees Celsius
Trial 2 results: Start = 18 degrees Celsius, End = 21 degrees Celsius
Trial 3 results: Start = 18 degrees Celsius, End = 21 degrees Celsius
Average temperature increase = 3.33 degrees Celsius
Note: I thought the engine might have warmed up the water, but heat exchange from metal to plastic to metal is highly unlikely. The high pressure could cause the seals in your blender to break, so don't try this on an expensive blender you want to keep. So it's not my fault if you break any equipment.
