What is Heat ?
A Form of Energy
Heat or thermal energy flows from a region of higher temperature to a
Region of lower temperature
Heat
Heat is defined as the transfer of energy across the boundary of a
system due to a temperature difference between the system and its
surroundings.
Heat, internal energy, and temperature are all different quantities.
Be sure to use the correct definition of heat.
You cannot talk about the heat of a system, you can refer
to heat only when energy has been transferred as a result of a
temperature difference.
9
Energy can exist in numerous forms such as:
thermal,
mechanical,
kinetic,
potential,
electrical,
magnetic,
chemical,
nuclear.
Their sum constitutes the total energy E (or e on a unit mass
basis) of a system.
The sum of all microscopic forms of energy is called the
internal energy of a system.

THERMODYNAMICS AND HEAT TRANSFER
Heat: The form of energy that can be transferred from one system
to another as a result of temperature difference.
Thermodynamics is concerned with the amount of heat transfer as
a system undergoes a process from one equilibrium state to
another.
Heat Transfer deals with the determination of the rates of such
energy transfers as well as variation of temperature.
The transfer of energy as heat is always from the higher-
temperature medium to the lower-temperature one.
Heat transfer stops when the two mediums reach the same
temperature.
Heat can be transferred in three different modes:
conduction, convection, radiation
Internal Energy and Enthalpy
In the analysis of systems that
involve fluid flow, we frequently
encounter the combination of
properties u and Pv.
The combination is defined as
enthalpy (h = u + Pv).
The term Pv represents the flow
energy of the fluid (also called
the flow work).

Historical Background
Thermodynamics and mechanics (mass/momentum transfer)
were considered to be distinct branches of physics.
Until about 1850
Experiments by James Joule and others showed a
connection between them.
A connection was found between the transfer of energy by heat
in thermal processes and the transfer of energy by work in
mechanical processes.
The concept of energy was generalized to include internal
energy.
The principle of conservation of energy emerged as a universal
law of nature.

Unification of dynamics (F =ma) and heat transfer/thermal science
Mechanical Equivalent of Heat
Joule established the
equivalence between
mechanical energy and
internal energy.
His experimental setup is
shown at right.
The decrease in potential
energy associated of the
system as the blocks fall
equals the work done by the
paddle wheel on the water.
Mechanical Equivalent of Heat
Joule found that it took approximately 4.18 J of mechanical energy to raise
the water 1
o
C.
Later, more precise measurements determined the amount of mechanical
energy needed to raise the temperature of water from 14.5
o
C to 15.5
o
C is 1
cal
1 cal = 4.186 J
This is known as the mechanical equivalent of heat.
A more proper name would be the equivalence between
mechanical energy and internal energy, but the historical name is
well entrenched.
1 Joule = 1(kg*m/s

)*m=1 N* m= 1Watt*s
Joule developed the absolute scale of temperature, made observation on
magnetrostriction.
Joules law: Heat generated on a electric circuit: Q = (I

R)t
( where I =current, R = circuit resistance, t =time)
Joule led to the theory of conservation of energy, which led to the
development of the first law of thermodynamics

Units of Heat
Historically, the calorie was the unit used for heat.
One calorie is the amount of energy transfer necessary to
raise the temperature of 1 g of water from 14.5
o
C to
15.5
o
C.
The Calorie used for food is actually 1 kilocalorie.
In the US Customary system, the unit is a BTU (British Thermal
Unit).
One BTU is the amount of energy transfer necessary to
raise the temperature of 1 lb of water from 63
o
F to 64
o
F.
The standard in the textbook is to use Joules.
1 cal =4.186 J .
1 Btu (British thermal unit) =1055.06 J =2.931 10
-4
kWh =0.252 kcal
1 BTU (British Thermal unit) =778.16 ft.lbf =1.05510
10
ergs =0.293 watt-hours

The most common units for heat are
-------- BTU (Btu) - British Thermal Unit
-------- Calorie
--------- Joule

The calorie was first defined by Nicolas Clment in 1824 as a unit of heat,
The word comes from Latin calor meaning "heat".
A calorie (cal) is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram
of water by 1 C (at sea level).
Joule is a unit of energy equal to the work done when a force of one newton acts
through a distance of one meter

Units of Heat
Temperature and Heat
Kinetic energy of the molecules is the
energy of motion
Temperature is the measure of the average
kinetic energy of molecules motions
Kelvin scale
The Kelvin scale is a metric temperature scale
measured in Kelvin units (K)
Formula (273+C)= Kelvin
The important parameters
All of thermodynamics can be expressed in
terms of four quantities
Temperature (T)
Internal Energy (U)
Entropy (S)
Heat (Q)
These quantities will be defined as we progress
through the lesson
The basic Laws in Thermodynamics
(3 laws+ a - zero
th
law)
According to British scientist C. P. Snow, the
three laws of thermodynamics can be
(humorously) summarized as
1. You cant win (1
st
law)
2. You cant even break even (2
nd
law)
3. You cant get out of the game (3

The first law of thermodynamics is an
extension of the law of conservation of energy
The change in internal energy of a system is
equal to the heat added to the system minus the
work done by the system

Process Terminology

The amount of heat required to raise a certain
mass of a material by a certain temperature is
called heat capacity
Q = mc

The constant c
x
is called the specific heat of
substance x, (SI units of J/kg K)
You cant break even
(2
nd
Law of Thermodynamics)
Think about what it means to not break
even. Every effort you put forth, no matter
how efficient you are, will have a tiny bit of
waste.
The 2
nd
Law can also be stated that heat flows
spontaneously from a hot object to a cold
object (spontaneously means without the assistance of external work)
This implies there is a direction of heart flows (one-way street)

Second Law of Thermodynamics

Concerning the 2
nd
Law
The second law of thermodynamics introduces
the notion of entropy (S), a measure of system
disorder (messiness)
Direction of a Process
The 2
nd
Law helps determine the preferred
direction of a process
A reversible process is one which can change
state and then return to the original state
This is an idealized condition all real
processes are irreversible
A restatement of the Second Law which turns out to be
equivalent:
Heat will not flow from a colder body to a hotter body unless
some other process (which does work) is also involved.

Another restatement to be discussed next time:
The entropy of an isolated system can only increase or
remain constant. Its entropy cannot decrease.
Heat Engine
A device which transforms heat into work is
called a heat engine
This happens in a cyclic process
Heat engines require a hot reservoir to supply
energy (Q
H
) and a cold reservoir to take in the
excess energy (Q
C
)
Q

is defined as positive, Q
C
is less than Q

(3
rd
Law of Thermodynamics )
No system can reach absolute zero temperature
This is one reason we use the Kelvin
temperature scale. Not only is the internal
energy proportional to temperature, but you
never have to worry about dividing by zero in
an equation!
There is no formula associated with the 3
rd

Law of Thermodynamics
The 3
rd
law defines the zero temperature (0K)



Third Law of Thermodynamics
The third law of thermodynamics is sometimes stated
as follows:
The entropy of a perfect crystal at absolute zero
is exactly equal to zero.

In 1912 Nernst stated the law as : "It is impossible for
any procedure to lead to the isotherm T = 0 in a finite
number of steps."
Implications of 3
rd
Law
MIT researchers achieved 450 picokelvin in 2003
(less than of one billionth!)
Molecules near these temperatures have been called
the fifth state of matter: Bose-Einstein Condensates
Awesome things like super-fluidity and super-
conductivity happen at these temperatures
K 0 (thermal conductivity)
0 (gas viscosity)
Exciting frontier of research

Helium II will "creep" along surfaces
(anti-gravity and anti-surface tension)
Superfluidity of liquid helium
The Third Law of Thermodynamics
The third law: The entropy of a perfect crystal at
0 degree Kelvin is zero.

The third law provides the reference state for use
in calculating absolute entropies.

Heat Transfer
The movement of heat is from a warmer object to a
colder one
Heat transfer process can be quantified by appropriate
rate equation
----- These equations are used to compute the
amount of energy being transferred per unit time
Forms of heat transfer
Three forms (Modes) of heat transfer:
Conduction
Convection
Radiation
53
Modes of heat transfer
Conduction: diffusion of heat due to temperature gradients. A
measure of the amount of conduction for a given gradient is the
heat conductivity.
Convection: when heat is carried away by moving fluid. The
flow can either be caused by external influences, forced
convection; or by buoyancy forces, natural convection.
Convective heat transfer is tightly coupled to the fluid flow
solution.
Radiation: transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves
between surfaces with different temperatures, separated by a
medium that is at least partially transparent to the (infrared)
radiation. Radiation is especially important at high
temperatures, e.g. during combustion processes, but can also
have a measurable effect at room temperatures.
Heat Transfer
The science of how heat flows is called heat transfer.
There are three ways heat transfer works: conduction,
convection, and radiation.
Heat flow depends on the temperature difference.
Thermal Equilibrium
Two bodies are in
thermal equilibrium with
each other when they
have the same
temperature.
In nature, heat always
flows from hot to cold
until thermal equilibrium
is reached.
Heat Conduction
Key Question:
How does heat pass
through different
materials?
Conduction
When you heat a metal strip at one end, the heat
travels to the other end.
As you heat the metal, the particles vibrate, these
vibrations make the adjacent particles vibrate, and so on
and so on, the vibrations are passed along the metal and
so is the heat. We call this?
Conduction
Metals are different
The outer e______ of metal atoms
drift, and are free to move.

When the metal is heated, this
sea of electrons gain kinetic
energy and transfer it
throughout the metal.
Insulators, such as wood does not have these sea of
electrons which is why they do not conduct heat as well as
metals.
lectrons

Heat Conduction
Conduction is the transfer of heat through
materials by the direct contact of matter.
Dense metals like copper and aluminum are
very good thermal conductors.
Heat Conduction
A thermal insulator is a material that conducts
heat poorly.
Heat flows very slowly through the plastic so that
the temperature of your hand does not rise very
much.
Heat Conduction
Styrofoam gets its
insulating ability by
trapping spaces of
air in bubbles.
Solids usually are
better heat
conductors than
liquids, and liquids
are better
conductors than
gases.

Convection
Can moving matter carry

4 processes of convection:
(a) forced convection;
(b) Free or natural convection;
(c) Boiling
(d) Condensation
Convection
Convection is the transfer of
heat by the motion of
liquids and gases.
Convection in a gas occurs
because gas expands when
heated.
Convection occurs because
currents flow when hot gas
rises and cool gas sink.
Convection in liquids also
occurs because of differences
in density.

Convection
When the flow of gas or
liquid comes from
differences in density and
temperature, it is called
free convection.
When the flow of gas or
liquid is circulated by
pumps or fans it is called
forced convection.
Convection
Convection depends on
surface area.
If the surface contacting
the fluid is increased, the
rate of heat transfer also
increases.
Almost all devices made
for convection have fins
for this purpose.
Free Convection and Sea Breezes
On a smaller scale near coastlines,
convection is responsible for sea
breezes.
During the daytime, land is much
hotter than the ocean.
A sea breeze is created when hot air
over the land rises due to convection
and is replaced by cooler air from the
ocean.
At night the temperature reverses so a
land breeze occurs.
Convection Currents
Much of the Earths climate is regulated by giant convection
currents in the ocean.

where k(x,y,z,T) is the thermal

In most practical situations
conduction, convection, and
radiation appear in combination.
Also for convection, the heat
transfer coefficient is important,
because a flow can only carry heat
away from a wall when that wall
is conducting.

Newtons law of cooling Convection
Newton described the cooling of objects with an arbitrary
shape in a pragmatic way. He postulated that the heat transfer
Q is proportional to the surface area A of the object and a
temperature difference AT.
The proportionality constant is the heat transfer coefficient
h(W/m
2
-K). This empirical constant lumps together all the
information about the heat transfer process that we dont know
or dont understand.

Convection heat transfer
Convection is movement of heat with a fluid.

away warm air near the body and replaces it with cold
air.

Natural convection around a person
Light weight warm air tends to
move upward when surrounded by
cooler air.
Thus, warm-blooded animals are
surrounded by thermal plumes of
rising warm air.
This plume is made visible by
means of a Schlieren optical system
that is based on the fact that the
refraction of light through a gas is
dependent on the density of the gas.
Although the velocity of the rising
air is relatively small, the Reynolds
number for this flow is on the order
of 3000.
