1 Thermal Energy Conduction, Convection and Radiation

2 How Heat Travels Heat moves from ________ matter to ________ matter. Heat moves in 3 different ways: __________ warmer cooler Conduction Convection Radiation

3 Conduction Definition: The transfer of __________ through a material by ___________ __________. Examples: direct contact heat A metal spoon gets hot quickly in hot cocoa An iron heats up the material it comes in contact with.

4 Heat transfer by Conduction Note that in metals, heat is transferred through free-moving electrons, and in other substances through moving atoms. *images from http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/science/aqa/energy/heatrev1.shtml

5 Convection Definition: The transfer of heat in a __________ (gas or liquid) as a result of the ______________ of the fluid itself. Examples: movement fluid Boiling pasta in water. Wind currents.

6 Heat transfer by Convection Note that the warm material rises, cools at the surface and then sinks in a circular pattern. *animation from http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Convection.gif

7 Radiation Definition: The transfer of heat via __________________ _________ through ___________. Examples: waveselectromagnetic The heat from the sun melting ice cream. The heat from a campfire. space
