THE PHYSICS OF HEAT PROCESSING Knowledge of Heat Transfer Promotes Efficient Use of Energy When heat is exchanged between matter, or parts of the same matter, it is called heat transfer . Heat transfer always occurs from warm to cool. Heat is generally transferred by one, or a combination, of three processes: CONDUCTION CONVECTION RADIATION CONDUCTION If heat is applied directly to one part of a solid object, the electrons become excited. This causes molecular collisions which travel along the object, heating as it passes through. This transfer of heat within a solid is known as conduction This ability to transfer heat within an object is called thermal conductivity . It varies for different materials. Gold, silver and copper have high thermal conductivity. These materials are also good conductors of electricity. Other materials, such as glass and mineral wool, have low thermal conductivity. This quality makes them good insulators CONVECTION Conduction between objects, where one is a gas or liquid, is called convection . As gasses or liquids are heated, the excited molecules achieve a fluid motion. Where gravity is a factor, such as here on earth, the natural fluid motion moves the heated, less dense molecules up and the cooler, more compact molecules down. This is why heating vents are located along the floor, while air-conditioning outlets are located near the ceiling.

PhACT-FAQ on Heat Based Free Energy Prepared by Tom Napier this page last edited 2/17/00 available at:http://www.phact.org/e/skeptic/frenfaq.htm What is free energy? This is energy which, once you have made the investment in the equipment, is generated indefinitely with no expenditure on fuel or other consumables. The following response is posted by George Wiseman: He should add that the equipment should be cost effective for the amount of free energy extracted. All power that we generate today is from free energy sources, by his own definition; solar, hydro, petrochemical, nuclear, etc. What we (in the "free energy" research) are doing is trying to find alternative energy sources that are more advantageous to use than the present free energy we are using. There ARE several alternatives, they just aren't practical (yet) because they are much more costly (cost more for the machine per watt) than the present methods. This includes the free energy heat pump system promoted by Dennis Lee. It WILL work, no question (Tom says it won't). The problem is that it is at LEAST ten times more expensive than Dennis Lee says it will be. So you can have a 1 KW system for $150,000 (mostly the cost of the huge heat exchangers because the heat energy available in air is very thin). Why bother when you can have a decent 1 KW solar cell setup for $10,000. Tom's thermodynamics are right out of the book; and CAN be proven wrong easily. There are several devices that put out more heat than the energy put in, with no measureable idea where the additional energy comes from. The Hydrosonic pump for example, heats and pumps water at the same time, putting out 130% energy for the energy input; easily measured and duplicated by anyone.

Heat and Temperature Energy Mechanics Physics Contents ... Home Knowing the difference between heat and temperature is important if one is to have a clear understanding of energy. In this section we will define both terms and reach an understanding of how they are related ideas, but not identical ideas. What follows are some beginnings, and then some links to further explanations and animations. A Wrong Idea Often the concepts of heat and temperature are thought to be the same, but they are not. Perhaps the reason the two are usually and incorrectly thought to be the same is because as human beings on Earth everyday experience leads us to notice that when you heat something up, say like putting a pot of water on the stove, then the temperature of that something goes up. More heat, more temperature - they must be the same, right? Turns out, though, this is not true. Initial Definitions Temperature is a number that is related to the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance. If temperature is measured in Kelvin degrees, then this number is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules. Heat is a measurement of the total energy in a substance. That total energy is made up of not only of the kinetic energies of the molecules of the substance, but total energy is also made up of the potential energies of the molecules.

Changes of Phase (or State) Heat and Temperature Energy Mechanics Contents ... Home The term 'change of phase' means the same thing as the term 'change of state'. There are four states, or phases, of matter. They are: Solid Liquid Gas Plasma We will not be discussing the plasma state here. When a substance changes from one state, or phase, of matter to another we say that it has undergone a change of state, or we say that it has undergone a change of phase. These changes of phase always occur with a change of heat. Heat, which is energy, either comes into the material during a change of phase or heat comes out of the material during this change. However, although the heat content of the material changes, the temperature does not. We will list five changes of phase. They are diagrammed in the above animation and listed below. Description of Phase Change Term for Phase Change Heat Movement During Phase Change Temperature Change During Phase Change Solid to liquid Melting Heat goes into the solid as it melts. None Liquid to solid Freezing Heat leaves the liquid as it freezes.

Print Preview Heat (physics) Article View On the File menu, click Print to print the information. Heat (physics) IV. Heat Units Heat is measured in terms of the calorie, defined as the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of 1 g of water at a pressure of 1 atm from 15° to 16° C. This unit is sometimes called the small or gram calorie to distinguish it from the large calorie, or kilocalorie, equal to 1000 cal, which is used in nutrition studies. In mechanical engineering practice in the United States and the United Kingdom, heat is measured in British thermal units, or Btu ( see British Thermal Unit). One Btu is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 lb of water 1° F and is equal to 252 cal. Mechanical energy can be converted into heat by friction, and the mechanical work necessary to produce 1 cal is known as the mechanical equivalent of heat. It is equal to 4.1855 — 10 ergs/cal or 778 ft-lb Btu. According to the law of conservation of energy, all the mechanical energy expended to produce heat by friction appears as energy in the objects on which the work is performed. This fact was first conclusively proven in a classic experiment performed by Joule, who heated water in a closed vessel by means of rotating paddle wheels and found that the rise in water temperature was proportional to the work expended in turning the wheels. If heat is converted into mechanical energy, as in an internal-combustion engine, the law of conservation of energy also applies. In any engine, however, some energy is always lost or dissipated in the form of heat because no engine is perfectly efficient.

Search Help More Search Options Search EERE Information Center Heat Flow Physics As a fundamental law, heat moves from warmer materials to cooler ones until there is no longer a temperature difference between the two. A passive solar building makes use of this law through three heat-movement mechanisms-conduction, convection, and radiation-to distribute heat throughout the living space. Conduction is the way heat moves through materials, traveling from molecule to molecule. Heat causes molecules close to the heat source to vibrate vigorously, and these vibrations spread to neighboring molecules, thus transferring heat energy. For example, a spoon placed into a hot cup of coffee conducts heat through its handle and into the hand that grasps it. Convection is the way heat circulates through liquids and gases. Lighter, warmer fluid rises, and cooler, denser fluid sinks. For instance, warm air rises because it is lighter than cold air, which sinks. This is why warmer air accumulates on the second floor of a house, while the basement stays cool. Some passive solar homes use air convection to carry solar heat from a south wall into the building's interior. Radiant heat moves through the air from warmer objects to cooler ones. There are two types of radiation important to passive solar design: solar radiation and infrared radiation. When radiation strikes an object, it is absorbed, reflected, or transmitted, depending on certain properties of that object.

16. Specific Heat -- From Eric Weisstein's World Of Physics The heat capacity for most solids is wellapproximated by the Dulong-Petit law,,(13). (15). The average energy is, (16). References. O Hanian, H. C. physics, Vol. http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/physics/SpecificHeat.html

Thermodynamics Heat Capacity Specific Heat The specific heat (also called specific heat capacity) is the amount of heat required to change a unit mass (or unit quantity, such as mole) of a substance by one degree in temperature. Therefore, unlike the extensive variable heat capacity , which depends on the quantity of material, specific heat is an intensive variable and has units of energy per mass per degree (or energy per number of moles per degree). The heat capacity of a substance can differ depending on what extensive variables are held constant, with the quantity being held constant usually being denoted with a subscript. For example, the specific heat at constant pressure is commonly denoted , while the specific heat at constant volume is commonly denoted . The specific heat of water at constant atmospheric pressure is i.e., 1 calorie is needed per degree Kelvin (or Celsius ) of temperature change for 1 gram of liquid water . In fact, the definition of (one of the several types of) the calorie is the amount of heat needed to change the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 at its temperature of maximum density The heat capacity ratio is defined as the ratio of specific heats of a substance at constant pressure and constant volume

Thermodynamics Heat Capacity Heat Capacity The heat capacity C of a substance is the amount of heat required to change its temperature by one degree, and has units of energy per degree. The heat capacity is therefore an extensive variable since a large quantity of matter will have a proportionally large heat capacity. A more useful quantity is the specific heat (also called specific heat capacity), which is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of one unit of mass of a substance by one degree. Specific heat is therefore an intensive variable and has units of energy per mass per degree. Denote a heat capacity by a capital C with a subscript denoting which variable is held constant during the temperature change. The heat capacity at constant pressure is then defined by where is the change in heat with temperature, T is the temperature, and S is the entropy . At constant volume, and The two heat capacities and satisfy the relationship (Sears and Salinger 1975, p. 164), where is the thermal expansion coefficient and is the isothermal bulk modulus For an ideal gas , the total heat capacity is where n is the number of moles and R is the universal gas constant . When and are divided by the number of moles, they become the

It is based on the concept that in an isolated system anywhere in the universe there is a measurable quantity of energy called the internal energy (U) of the system. This is the total kinetic and potential energy of the atoms and molecules of the system of all kinds that can be transferred directly as heat; it therefore excludes chemical and nuclear energy. The value of U can only be changed if the system ceases to be isolated. In these circumstances U can change by the transfer of mass to or from the system, the transfer of heat, or by work being done.
