Anybody good with physics? At least, I think it is physics...chemistry too.

I am wondering how much propane it would take to eviscerate everything in about 32,000 cubic feet of space. My math is probably wrong for that...LxWxH?
To just make everything ash. No debris. How many 20# tanks would it take?

Eviscerate? I think you mean something else (disintegrate?). But the volume is LxWxH alright. If you want to burn that much volume, it depends what it holds (different materiel needing different heat gradients). A 20# propane tank would hold about 420,000 BTU, so if your volume is, say, holding human bodies, that'd be about 2000 bodies, each needing about 40,000 BTU (varies wildly depending on how fat they are), so ... 200 20# tanks
