1. Heat Transfer Conduction, Convection and Radiation

2. Heat is NOT Temperature

3. Heat is the actual energy…
Heat vs. Temperature
Heat is the actual energy…
Temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy of particles in a substance.

4. Thermal Energy Transfer
Thermal energy transfer is heat moving from a warmer object to a cooler object. This is known as thermal energy transfer.

5. How is Heat Transferred?
There are THREE ways heat can move.
Conduction
Convection
Radiation

6. Conduction
Heat is transferred from one particle of matter to another in an object without the movement of the object.
Transfer of heat through direct contact.
Occurs anytime objects at different temperatures are touching each other.
As long as the objects are in contact, transfer of heat will continue until the temperature of the objects is the same.

7. Have you ever…
Touched a metal spoon sitting in a pan of boiling water only to be surprised by HOW hot it is??
Think back to what you know about metals and nonmetals. What conducts heat better, metal or nonmetal? Why?

8. Example of Conduction
Think of a metal spoon in a pot of water being heated.
The fast-moving particles of the fire collide with the slow-moving particles of the cool pot.
Because of these collisions, the slower particles move faster and heat is transferred.
Then the particles of the pot collide with the particles in the water, which collide with the particles at one end of the spoon.
As the particles move faster, the metal spoon gets hotter. This process of conduction is repeated all along the metal until the entire spoon is hot.
Have an example sitting in front on the lab table (doesn’t need to be on); a visual.

9. EXAMPLE OF CONDUCTION
A piece of cheese melts as heat is transferred from the meat to the cheese (Contact)

10. Why does metal feel colder than wood, if they are both at the same temperature?
Metal is a conductor, wood is an insulator. Metal conducts the heat away from your hands. Wood does not conduct the heat away from your hands as well as the metal, so the wood feels warmer than the metal.

11. Conduction vs Insulation?
A conductor is a material that transfers heat very well.
Metals are typically good conductors.
An insulator is a material that is a poor conductor of heat.
Wood, paper, and plastic foam are examples of good insulators.

13. Convection
Convection is the movement that transfers heat within fluids and air (gas)
Heat is transferred by currents within the fluid or gas
Convection = VENTS (through air and liquid particles)
Convection moves in
a circular pattern

14. Examples of Convection:
Have you ever noticed that the air near the ceiling is warmer than the air near the floor? Or that water in a pool is cooler at the deep end?
Examples: air movement in a home, pot of heating water.
Pick one of these examples and draw the circular pattern in your notes.
When the water at the bottom of a pot is heated, its particles move faster, and they also move farther apart. As a result, the heated water becomes less dense. A less dense fluid will float on top of a more dense one. Therefore, the heated water rises in the pot. The surrounding cooler water flows into its place.
This flow creates the circular motion as seen on the next page, which is known as convection currents.

15. Explaining Convection
Convection currents cause the cooler breezes you experience by a large body of water.
These currents also cause the movement of magma within the earth.

16. Radiation

17. RADIATION
Radiation is the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves (visible light, microwave, infrared light
Radiation does NOT require matter to transfer thermal energy
Radiation = Radiates (heat escaping the sun)

19. Radiation May Come From Other Sources
Have you ever sat too close to a campfire while cooking marshmallows? You’re enjoying the warmth ….. only to notice that your skin is really warm?

20. Examples of RADIATION
Fire
Heat Lamps
Sun
