1
Temperature and Heat What's the difference? Write a definition of each and then compare with your neighbor.
2
Temperature vs. Heat Temperature Measurement of average kinetic energy of molecules in a substance Measurement of internal thermal energy Heat Thermal energy that is transmitted from one object to another Energy in transit Objects can't contain heat- they can contain thermal energy (measured in temperature) which is transmitted as heat.
3
Temperature Scales Celsius Water freezes at 0 degrees Boils at 100 degrees To convert from Fahrenheit: °F=9/5(°C)+32 Kelvin Absolute zero Water freezes at 273 To convert from celsius: K=°C+273
4
Physical Changes due to heat transfer When a substance absorbs or gives off heat it can Change temperature Change phase BUT NOT BOTH at same time Describe what is happening on this graph
5
Temperature Changes △ T depends on ID of substance Mass of substance For example, you could add 10J to a textbook and a metal bar and their temp change would be different- thus the metal pots and pans
6
Specific Heat Specific heat= capacity of a substance to store heat Depends on chemical composition Technically= the amount of heat (Joules) required to raise the temp of a unit mass of the substance by 1 degree Kind of like “thermal inertia” SO which do you think has a higher specific heat: water or aluminum? 6
7
Specific Heat (c) Specific heat measured in J/g°C but sometimes also see it in calories/g°C Calorie is a unit of heat based on water: 1 calorie is heat to raise temp of 1g of water by 1°C So specific heat of water is 1cal/g°C which is equivalent to 4.186J/g°C Compare this to aluminum which has a specific heat of 0.215cal/g°C or 0.900J/g°C Aluminum transfers heat much more easily! 7

Specific Heat Charts 8

Temperature Changes The amount of heat added relates to the change in temperature: Q=mc △ T Where Q= amount of heat coming in or going out (+ for increase in temp, - for decrease in temp) c is specific heat of substance Note relationships- more mass means less △ T Higher specific heat means less △ T for same Q
10
Heat Transfer and Phase Changes If you add or subtract heat at a phase change, the phase change will occur instead of temperature change- remember that these cannot occur together! Once the phase change is complete, the temperature can change again Q=mL –Q= amount of heat –L=latent heat of fusion or vaporization
11
Problem Solving: Heat Transfer In a half hour, a 65kg jogger can generate 8.0x10 5 J of heat. The heat is removed from the joggers body through natural mechanisms. If this heat were not removed, how much would the body temperature increase? Specific heat capacity of the human body is 3500J/kg°C. Is heat transfer involved in phase change or temperature change? Which equation is used?
12
Problem Solution Q=cmΔT ΔT=Q/cm=8.0x10 5 J /(3500J/kg°C)(65kg)=3.5°C
13
Problem solving with phase changes Phase changes are reversible Note which phase change- are you using latent heat of vaporization or fusion? Are you increasing temperature outside of phase change? If so, you need to solve both parts separately Try # 10 on HW 13
14
Heat Transfer and Thermal Expansion When substance changes temperature it also changes size Most things expand as they increase temperature but not… Water between4°C-0°C Each material has a coefficient of linear expansion=α and change in length equals: ΔL=αL i ΔT Using this formula, what is the unit then for the coefficient of thermal expansion, α? 1/°C
15
Problem Solving: Thermal Expansion A metal ball has a diameter that is slightly greater than the diameter of a hole that has been cut into a metal plate. The coefficient of linear expansion for the metal in the ball is greater than that for the plate. Which one (or more) of the following procedures can be used to make the ball pass through the hole? A: raise the temperatures of the ball and plate by the same amount B: lower the temperatures of the ball and plate by the same amount C: heat the ball and cool the plate D: cool the ball and heat the plate
16
Solution: thermal expansion B and D Since the coefficient of linear expansion of the ball is greater than the plate, it will shrink more per change in temperature as the temperature of both is lowered. Also, by cooling the ball you will decrease its size and by heating the plate you will increase the size of the hole.
17
Thermal Expansion Thermal expansion is a property of the material different materials expand differently Engineers need to take this into account in their designs: expansion joints in bridges bi-metal strip demo 17
18
Thermal expansion This is how thermostats work- bimetallic strips in refrigerators, ovens, etc. open and close a switch as the bimetallic strip bends one way or the other due to temp changes If you have a metal lid on a glass jar that is stuck on too tight, how can you use this to get the lid off? 18
19
Volume Thermal Expansion Similar to linear expansion, the expansion of volume with an increase in temp is related to the initial volume, the change in temperature, and a proportionality constant This is primarily useful with liquids since they don’t expand linearly The coefficient of volume expansion = β ΔV=βV o ΔT
20
20 Problem solving- thermal expansion A concrete sidewalk is constructed between two buildings on a day when the temperature is 25 degrees celsius. The sidewalk consists of 2 slabs, each 3m in length and negligible thickness. As the temperature rises to 38 degrees, the slabs expand but no space is provided for thermal expansion. Concrete has a coefficient of linear expansion of 12 x 10 -6 The buildings don’t move so the slabs buckle upward. Determine the vertical distance (y) that the slaps stick up after buckling. Hint- DRAW! 20
21
21 Solution The slabs expand linearly according to ΔL=αL i ΔT ΔL=(12 x 10 -6 )(3m)(13)=0.00047m The new length of the slab is then 3.00047 which gives us the hypotenuse of the triangle. The height, y, is found through the pythagorean theorem. The x is the original length, 3m. Y=sqrt [(3.00047) 2 +(3) 2 ]= 0.053m 21
22
How does heat transfer? You’ve heard this before… Conduction, convection, radiation Remember them?
23
Convection Think convection currents! The different temp molecules actually move Thus the “hot air rises” phenomenon
24
Conduction Heat transfer through collisions of molecules- energy transferred from higher temp to lower temp Thermal conductors transfer heat well Thermal insulators do not
25
Factors Affecting Conduction Amount of heat (Q) conducted along a bar depends on what factors? t =Time T= Temperature difference A=Thickness or cross section area L=Length (inversely proportional) The material involved (thermal conductivity, k, of that material)
26
Conduction of Heat through a material Q=(kAΔT)t/L So try one: When excessive heat is produced in the body, it must be transferred to the skin and dispersed to maintain a constant 37.0°C. One possible mechanism for transfer is through body fat which has a thermal conductivity of 0.20J/sm°C. Suppose the heat travels through 0.030m of fat to reach the skin which has a surface area of 1.7m 2 and a temperature of 34.0 °C. Find the amount of heat that reaches the skin in a half hour.
27
Problem Solving- Conduction How much heat would flow through an 8- m 2 area of an uninsulated concrete block (k = 0.8 W/Km) house in 24 hours if the temperature is 37ºC on the one side and 22ºC on the other. The block is 25 cm thick.
28
Solution- Conduction ΔQ = kA(T 2 -T 1 )t/ L ΔQ = (0.8)(8)(37-22)[(24)(3600)]/0.25 ΔQ = 3.32 x 10 7 J
29
Radiation Energy transfer without a medium- through electromagnetic waves We will do lots more on radiation later!
