Heat Transfer NOTES
2
TOTAL energy of motion in molecules of a substance
Thermal Energy TOTAL energy of motion in molecules of a substance (therm=heat)
3
Average amount of energy in motion
Temperature Average amount of energy in motion * Measured with a thermometer
4
HEAT Energy Transfers…
from hotter object to COLDER object Heat hot cold
5
3 types of heat Transfer 1) Radiation: infrared (not visible) and FELT as heat, can be absorbed or emitted; example: the sun, heat from a fire, frying an egg. *Touch is NOT required!* 2) Conduction: transfer of heat by TOUCH, usually includes direct contact; example: when you touch a hot pot 3) Convection: transfer of heat by movement of molecules in a liquid/gas, no touch required, heat expands followed by cooling and contraction; example: typically how heat is transfered in the troposphere, water boiled in a pot, a convectoin (toaster) oven.

*Feel warmth on face from sun=
Radiation (infrared) Examples: *Feel warmth on face from sun= solar radiation * Warmth of a fire * Heat off car engine
7
Conduction=touch * Touching hot light bulb * Hot sand on feet
Examples: * Hot sand on feet * Touching hot light bulb * Touching metal on hot seatbelt * Stove to pan handle * Melting ice in hand
8
Convection * Boiling in water * Convection oven
9
LOOK AT ALL THREE:

Heat Transfer in the Troposphere
* 3.convection 1.RADIATION from the sun * CONVECTION is the most dominant heat transfer in the troposphere with the help of winds 2.Energy reaches the surface and is absorbed = CONDUCTION, then bounces back (rises)

Type Definition Examples: Radiation Conduction Convection
