There is no metabolic equation for swimmers because every swimmer swims at a different efficiency.
The easiest way to do it would be to check your heart rate somewhere towards the end of your 15 minutes. Do a 15-30 second count because your HR drops QUICK after exercise. (Subtract about 12 beats per minute from your heart rate (BPM) because your heart doesnt have to work so hard to return blood when under water and it will mess up the calculation if you dont compensate for this).
HR is nearly linear to the amount of oxygen you consume (VO2) so find a reference chart of VO2 vs Heart Rate online and see what your VO2 is at the exercise heart rate, which will be in the units "ml of O2/kg of body weight/min". From that, calculate how many Liters of Oxygen you consumed during the 15 minute swim using your body weight and minutes swimming. Once your have calculated the Liters of Oxygen you consumed you know how many calories you burned because 1 liter of oxygen = 5 calories burned.
If you know how to do math, its all right there :) The hardest part is finding the VO2 vs HR chart.
It depends on how active you are when you're swimming, but maybe 300 kcal an hour. It altso depends on your age, height, weight, and so much more.

How many calories burned swimming?
Calories burned swimming for one hourI was told that you can burn approximately 450 calories in an hour, but only if you are swimming as if in a practice. That means you don't stop very often to relax. You have to keep the pace going. Doing something like a butterfly stoke (which requires a lot of effort) solidly for one hour might burn 500-700 depending on your weight.I'm not sure if this is correct but I heard that if you can manage to build up your pace and get to the stage where you can swim one whole mile in 33 minutes it will burn approximately 425 calories. I'm joining my school swim team next week.The number of calories burned swimming depends on how fast you are swimming, what swimming stroke you use, the amount of effort required from you, how far you swim, and how often you rest.
