Heat transfer Flashcards
Thermodynamics
The transformation of heat to and from other forms of energy, and with the laws governing such conversions Refers to the entire system of doing work by the transfer of heat
Heat Transfer
How heat actually moves around and the actual materials that are re used to move such heat
Internal Energy and Temperature are related___?
Internal energy of molecules of a substance is directly proportional to temperature
What happens to nearly all materials when the temperature rises?
Nearly all materials expand when their temperature is raised and shrink when it is lowered
Temperature
A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in matter
Heat
The energy transferred between matter as a result of differences in temperature
How do bimetallic strips work?
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.
Boyle’s Law
Volume decreases as pressure increases if temperature is the same.P1V1=P2 V2
Up/down
Charles’ Law
Volume increase as temperature increase if pressure stays the same𝑉1/𝑇1=𝑉2/𝑇2
Up/ up
Combined, Ideal, and Real Gas Laws
Deals with pressure, temperature, and volume
Heat moves from___ to ___
Heat always moves from hot to cold.
Conduction
Transfer of heat through contact Transfers based off a difference in temperature the transfer of energy from molecule to molecule by collisions Example like a metal spoon heating up in a hot cup of coffee.
Convection
The transfer of energy by the flow of a liquid or a gasexample: heating a room with a radiator
Radiation
The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves.Example sun warming the earth
A good conductor
Copper
