Q

How do bimetallic strips work?

A

Bimetallic strips bend because one of the metals expands more than the other when heated, causing the strip to curve toward the metal with the lower expansion rate.

16
Q

Calorie

A

The amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water one degree Celsius.

17
Q

Specific heat

A

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a given amount of a substance by one degree

18
Q

Thermal Conductivity (k)

A

The ability or rate of a specific material to conduct heat per unit of time

19
Q

Material Thickness

A

The rate of heat transfer is directly proportional to the area available for heat transfer and inversely proportional to the thickness

20
Q

Phase Change or Change of phase

A

The transformation of matter from one state to another.

21
Q

Sensible Heat

A

The heat added to or removed from a substance to produce a change in temperature.

Changes you can sense

example is heating up a metal rod

22
Q

Latent Heat

A

The amount of heat added to or remove from a substance to produce a phase change.

23
Q

Evaporation

A

Happens more quickly at higher temperatures and slower at lower temperatures

boiling is a rapid evaporation.

24
Q
A
25
Q

Condensation

A

Vapor that turns into liquids

25
Q

Latent heat of fusion

A

The amount of heat required to melt of one gram of ice without producing any change in temperature.

25
Q

Latent Heat of Vaporization

A

The heat required to convert one gram of water to steam of its gaseous form

26
Q

Entropy

A

A measure of unavailable energy.

27
Q

Law of conservation of Energy

A

Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it may be transformed from one form to another, but the total amount of energy will never change.

28
Q

Heat Engine

A

A Device that converts thermal energy to other forms of energy such as mechanical and electrical energy.

Example car

29
Q

Parallel Flow Heat Exchanger

A

In a parallel flow heat exchanger, both fluids flow in the same direction.

30
Q

Fouling of the tubes in a heat exchanger

A

is caused by scale, corrosion, or biofouling (algae or fungi) on the surface of the tubes will decrease the heat transfer coefficient by affecting both the thermal conductivity and the thickness of the tubes.

Q

Water between 0-4C

A

Contracts

32
Q

Water between 4-0C

A

Expands
