1.2 Types of Types of Heat transfer🌡 Flashcards
▪ it is the direct transfer of heat from
one substance to another that is contacting 🍳
▪ based on the principle that adding
heat to molecules increases their energy, hence their ability to transfer heat to neighboring 💢♨️ molecules
Conduction
▪an excellent heat conductor and is used to line the bottom of stainless steel pans ⚜️
copper
▪ conducts heat in a way that baking temperatures should be reduced by 25°F (4°C) 🎛️
tempered glass
▪ what color absorbs more heat readily, which shortens baking time ⏲
dark, dull surfaces
▪ it is the transfer of heat by moving
air or liquid (water/fat) currents through and/or around food 💨🌊
▪ heated air or liquid expands, becomes less dense, and rises to
the surface 🫧🔁
Convection
▪ creates continuous circular currents
cooler, heavier air
▪ used for baked goods 🍞
▪ allow the hot air to rise
▪ heating unit at the bottom of the
oven contributes to the rising of hot air 📛
▪ air-circulating systems
▪ fans move the air more quickly and
evenly around the food 🌫💨
convection oven
▪ more prone to develop uneven tops
cake batters
▪ causes foods to lose moisture
moving air
▪ reduce the drying and shrinking effects in convection oven
injecting steam
▪ the transfer of heat energy in the form of waves of particles moving outward from their source 〰️
▪ broiling, grilling, and microwaving
▪ the short electromagnetic waves
pass through glass, paper, and most
plastic
▪ infrared heat lamps and ovens 🚨
Radiation
▪ the transfer of heat energy to a
neighboring material without
contact
▪ flat-surfaced ranges that have the
coils buried underneath
▪ consists of a smooth, ceramic
surface that allows heat transfer 🪔
Induction
▪the energy associated with motion
kinetic energy
▪ speeds up that motion; slows it down
heat; cold
▪ increases the movement of molecules
heating
▪ decreases the movement of molecules
freezing
32°F or 0°C
freezing point
212°F or 100°C
boiling point
▪ influence the boiling and freezing
temperatures of water 💥❄️
altitude and other compounds in
water (i.e., sugar or salt)
▪ the amount of energy required to
raise 1 kilogram of water 1°C
(measured between 14.5°C and
15.5°C at normal atmospheric
pressure)
