25
ideal gas depend on
temperature only
26
A substance whose specific volume (or density) does not change with temperature or pressure is called an
incompressible substance
27
Work done per unit time is called ____-, and is denoted by W · .
power
28
In daily life, we frequently refer to the sensible and latent forms of internal energy as ______
heat
29
The amount of heat transferred per unit time is called
heat transfer rate
30
The rate of heat transfer per unit area normal to the direction of heat transfer is called
heat flux
31
A large number of engineering devices such as water heaters and car radiators involve mass flow in and out of a system, and are modeled as
control volumes
32
steady means
no change with time
33
The amount of mass flowing through a cross section of a flow device per unit time is called the
mass flow rate
34
h is the slope of the temperature curve on a T-x diagram (the rate of change of T with x), at location x
temperature gradient
35
the rate of heat transfer through a unit thickness of the material per unit area per unit temperature difference.
thermal conductivity
36
is the mode of energy transfer between a solid surface and the adjacent liquid or gas that is in motion, and it involves the combined effects of conduction and fluid motion.
convection
37
Convection is called _______ if the fluid is forced to flow over the surface by external means such as a fan, pump, or the wind
forced convection
38
convection is called_______if the fluid motion is caused by buoyancy forces that are induced by density differences due to the variation of temperature in the fluid
natural (or free) convection
39
the rate of convection heat transfer is also reffered to as
newton's law of cooling
40
is the energy emitted by matter in the form of electromagnetic waves (or photons) as a result of the changes in the electronic configurations of the atoms or molecules.
radiation
41
NOTE Unlike conduction and convection, the transfer of energy by radiation DOES NOT REQUIRE the presence of an intervening medium
42
NOTE Most heat transfer problems encountered in practice are transient in nature, but they are usually analyzed under some presumed steady conditions since steady processes are easier to analyze, and they provide the answers to our questions.
