Abstract
    Dissipation of ocean potential energy is proposed by Tyler (2020) as a new mechanism leading to possible high-power states for Enceladus. I show here that this process actually results from viscoelastic dissipation within the crust. For plausible values of Enceladus's ocean thickness, crustal dissipation can be computed with the standard approach of static deformations of solid layers by equilibrium tides.
