Energy argument
Required energy:
35 300 J/g (Wasson 1996)
Estimated chondrule mass:
~1027 g (Morris & Desch 2009)
Total energy needed:
3.5 x 1031 J = 9.8 x 1024 kWh
in 2011: 4.77 x 109 kWh

Summary
The shock model
The impact model
● Difficult to cool the particles in a large scale shock
● Cooling rates do not match laboratory experiments
● Possible volatile loss
● Even in a simple approach the cooling rates can match the requirements for a wide parameter range
● Volatile loss can be prevented by saturation in high density regions
● SPH simulations are performed for more detailed calculations
