RE: Heat of Hydration
What type of cement (Type I or Type III Portland) and what pozzolanics/ash and admixtures?
Temperature of the concrete when placed?
Method and time of curing?
Too many different factors for a one sentence question.

ACI 207.1 Mass concrete (here it is a simple method proposed by Schmidt)
Like concretemasonry and you can verify with this references, temperature goes over many factors
