Chapter 5 Energy
2
Thermal Resistance Overview R thermal – Δ T/Q H Δ T temperature difference T heater – T heat Sink Q H heat flow rate V x IWatts or J/sec Conversion 1 calorie = 4.185 J 1 Watt = 0.239 cal/sec
3
Energy in Mechanical Systems Energy - a property that allows an object to do work Measured in Joules Law of Conservation of Energy - energy in a system must remain constant. Therefore, energy can not be created or destroyed
4
Kinetic Energy - energy of motion Linear KE = ½ mv 2 Rotational KE = ½ mr 2 ω m- mass r- radius ω - angular velocity (rad/sec)
5
Potential Energy - stored energy Gravitational (positional) PE G = (m) (g) (h) m- mass g- accel. due to gravityh- height o Elastic (compressed or stretched) o PE Elastic = ½ kx 2 k- spring constantx- displacement of spring
