There are several engineering resources (core technologies) that are the “building blocks” of all technology systems. Fluid Technology Core Technologies Mechanical StructuralElectrical ElectronicThermal FluidOptical Bio-TechMaterial U3g - L1

These are Infrared images of water leaving a faucet. Which is cold? Which is hot? How can you tell? Thermal Technology

The technology of producing, storing, controlling, transmitting and getting work from heat energy. Example applications: Furnace, Hot water heater, Toaster, Insulation, Heat exchanger, Refrigerator, Hot air balloon, Fan. Thermal Technology U3g - L1

The universe is made up of matter and energy. Matter is made up of atoms and molecules –Molecules are groups of atoms Energy causes atoms and molecules to always be in motion. They either: –Bump into each other –Vibrate back and forth The motion of atoms and molecules creates a form of energy called heat (or thermal energy) that is present in all matter.

U3g - L1 Thermodynamics is the science dealing with internal energy, heat, and work. Even in the coldest voids of space, matter has a very small, but still measureable, amount of heat energy. Which contains the most heat: an iceberg or a boiling pot of water? Why?

U3g - L1 Back to Atoms: When energy is applied to an atom, it becomes more excited. As the excitation increases, the electron cloud grows. Eventually, a photon (a particle of light) is emitted. The color of the light is determined by the level of excitation – red, orange, yellow, blue, white (hottest) An infrared camera captures these photons that are not visible to the human eye.

Energy can take on many forms and can change from one form to another. Many different types of energy can be converted into heat energy: –Light, electrical, mechanical, chemical, nuclear, sound, and thermal energy can each cause a substance to heat Put energy into a system and it heats up –When cold, jumping up and down or chattering teeth warm us up Take energy away and it cools –When hot, sitting still cools us down U3g - L1

A ball bouncing on the ground is what type of energy? –MECHANICAL – the object moves When we bounce it, would it heat up? After a car has been on the road a while, the rubber on the tires heats up and sounds sticky when the car slows down. Before ball bounces After ball bounces

U3g - L1 Thermal energy can be transferred to other objects causing them to heat up. Heating a pan of water: –Heat from the stove causes the molecules in the pan to vibrate faster. –The pan heats up. –Heat from the pan causes water molecules to move faster and heat up. –Heating something up – you are just making its molecules move faster.

U3g - L1 Electrical energy is converted into thermal energy when you use objects such as: –Heating pads, electrical stove elements, toasters, hair dryers, or light bulbs Combining certain chemicals produces heat: –The foods we eat are converted into heating our bodies, hand or foot warmers Light from the sun is converted to heat as the sun’s rays warm the earth’s surface. Energy from friction creates heat (car brakes).

1.Identify 5 thermal technologies not mentioned in class today (Remember, a thermal technology produces, stores, controls, transmits or gets work from heat energy ) 2.Identify the problem that the technology system solves 3.List the technological subsystems that are used in the technology 4.Identify the technology that preceded it (i.e. what was used before the technology was invented?)
