1. 6.P.3 Notes
Heat Transfer

2. 6.P.3.1 – Types of Energy Transfer
Energy can be transferred from one system to another (or system to its environment) in many different ways.

3. 6.P.3.1 – Types of Energy Transfer
Thermal Energy – Energy from the movement (vibration) of particles in matter. (transfers from hot to cold)

4. 6.P.3.1 – Types of Energy Transfer
Mechanical Energy – Energy that moves objects. (energy in motion)

5. 6.P.3.1 – Types of Energy Transfer
Electrical Energy – Energy created when a complete circuit is made.

6. 6.P.3.1 – Types of Energy Transfer
Electromagnetic Energy – Energy that travels over a distance through space. (EM SPECTRUM)

7. 6.P.3.2 – The Electromagnetic Spectrum
See the back of page 1 for EM Chart.

8. Heat flows from warmer to cooler until both are at equilibrium.
6.P.3.3 – Heat Transfer
Thermal Energy (Heat) is transferred through a material by collision of atoms within the material.
Heat flows from warmer to cooler until both are at equilibrium.

9. 6.P.3.3 – Heat Transfer
Conduction – When heat is transferred by direct touch. (mainly in solids)

10. 6.P.3.3 – Heat Transfer
Convection – When heat is transferred through the rising and falling of heat in a current. (mainly in liquids and gases)

11. Radiation – When heat is transferred through space.
6.P.3.3 – Heat Transfer
Radiation – When heat is transferred through space.

13. 6.P.3.3 – Heat Transfer
Thermal Conductors are materials that conduct heat easily.
Examples:
Aluminum
Steel
Copper

14. 6.P.3.3 – Heat Transfer
Thermal Insulators are materials that do no conduct heat easily.
Examples:
Pot Handles
Spatulas
Styrofoam

15. 6.P.3.3 – Heat Transfer
Electrical Conductors are materials that can easily allow a current to flow.
Examples:
Copper
Silver
Graphite

16. 6.P.3.3 – Heat Transfer
Electrical Insulators are materials that do not easily allow a current to flow.
Examples:
Rubber
Glass
Porcelain
Ceramic
