Final Physics 101: Lecture 24 Conduction, Convection+Radiation
Review • Heat is FLOW of energy • Flow of energy may increase temperature • Specific Heat • DT = Q / (c m) • Latent Heat • heat associated with change in phase • Today: Heat • Conduction • Convection • Radiation 07
Question Touch base of chair, and desk top, which feels colder? A) Base B) Same C) Desk Both must be the same temperature (room temperature), but metal feels colder because it conducts heat better/faster. 10
Heat Transfer: Conduction • Hot molecules have more KE than cold molecules • High-speed molecules on left collide with low-speed molecules on right • energy transferred to lower-speed molecules • heat transfers from hot to cold • I = rate of heat transfer = Q/t [J/s] • I = k A (TH-TC)/L • Q/t = k A T/x • k = “thermal conductivity” • Units: J/s-m-C • good thermal conductors…high k • good thermal insulators … low k • R = L/(Ak) = thermal resistance L = Dx TC Cold TH Hot Area A demos 13
Question If you want to maximize the amount of Heat flow which substance should you choose? 1. Aluminum 2. Copper 3. Steel 15
Example: Boiling water • A steel pot with an area of 0.05m2 and thickness of 0.006m is placed on top of a burner so that its bottom surface remains at 1500C. How much water boils away each minute?
Question If you want to limit the amount of Heat flow (Insulate) which substance should you choose? 1. Air 2. Wood 3. Glass 15
heater Heat Transfer Convection • Air heats at bottom • Thermal expansion…density gets smaller • Lower density air rises • Archimedes: low density floats on high density • Cooler air pushed down • Cycle continues with net result of circulation of air • Practical aspects • heater ducts on floor • A/C ducts on ceiling • stove heats water from bottom • “riding the thermals” demos 27
Heat Transfer: Radiation Surroundings at T0 T Hot stove • All things radiate and absorb electromagnetic energy • Iemit = eAT4 • Iabsorb = eAT04 • Inet = Iemit - Iabsorb = eA(T4 - T04) • if T > T0, object cools down • if T < T0, object heats up HW 38
Earth Homework The Earth has a surface temperature around 270 K and an emissivity of 0.8, while space has a temperature of around 2 K. What is the net power radiated by the earth into free space? (Radii of the Earth and the Sun are Re = 6.38×106 m, Rs = 7×108 m.) Average consumption of US= 1.3x108 Watts 42
