2 HEAT ENGINES

3 HEAT ENGINE  A heat engine is any device that changes thermal energy into mechanical energy so work can be done.  Mechanical work can be done only if heat flows from a high-temperature to low- temperature region.

6 The process of an internal combustion engine resembles that of a heat engine. http://www.planemath.com/activities/pmenterprises/propulsi on/propulsion3.html

7 HEAT ENGINES  Only some of the heat transferred from the high- temperature region can be transformed into mechanical energy (work). The remainder of the thermal energy is exhausted as waste heat.

8 Phases of Matter  Solid  Definite volume and shape  Liquid  Definite volume  Undefined shape  Gas  Undefined volume and shape  Plasma  Undefined volume and shape  Electrically charged gas—High temp!  Neon, lightning, stars, auroras, fluorescent bulbs

9 Melting and Evaporation Require Input of Thermal Energy  Melting (requires heat of fusion)  Heat of fusion is released when liquids freeze  Evaporation (requires heat of vaporization)  Heat of vaporization is released when gases condense

10 Evaporation vs. Condensation  Evaporation is a cooling process  Evaporation causes the temperature of the liquid to decrease (removes thermal energy from surroundings)  Condensation is a warming process  Condensation causes the temperature of the surroundings to increase (adds thermal energy to the surroundings)

11 If you heat a solid sufficiently, it will melt and become a liquid. If you heat the liquid, it will vaporize and become a gas. The change in the internal energy of a substance causes the change of phase. 23.8 Energy and Changes of Phase

12 The cloth covering on the sides of the canteen promotes cooling when it is wet. As the faster-moving water molecules leave the cloth, the temperature of the cloth decreases. 23.1 Evaporation

13 Starter Question #2 How does a thermometer work? The kinetic theory be used to explain expansion and contraction of materials when the temperature of the material changes. As the temperature rises, heat is transferred from the surroundings to the liquid inside the thermometer and the molecules that compose the liquid vibrate faster. This causes the liquid to expand and rise. As the temperature falls, heat is transferred away from the liquid inside to the surroundings and the molecules that compose this liquid slow down. This causes the liquid to contract.

14  The liquid in the thermometer stops rising or falling when thermal equilibrium is reached (no more heat flow!) Air temperature = Liquid temperature

15 Winter Vs. Summer Heat Flow  In winter -Heat loss from inside (warmer) to outside (colder) -Heating system must operate to transfer thermal energy from fuel to fluid to room to keep house warm  In summer -Heat gain from outside (warmer) to inside (cooler) - Cooling system must operate to transfer incoming heat entering the house back to the outside

16 Water has a high specific heat and is transparent, so it takes more energy to heat up than land does. 21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water

17 Moderating Effect of Water on Climate  Water has a high specific heat capacity. This means…  It takes a large amount of heat to raise its temperature  It absorbs a large amount of heat  It stores a large amount of heat  It has to give up a large amount of heat in order to cool down  It takes a long time for water to cool down

18 Moderating Effect of Water on Climate  During the summer, surrounding air is cooled by the water and keeps the coast cooler than the intercontinental locations.  During the winter, the surrounding air is warmed by the water and keeps the coast warmer than the intercontinental locations.

19 Water stores and hold heat well because of its high specific heat. This affects global climate. 21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water Gulf Stream brings warm water northeast from the Caribbean.

22 Climate of America On the west coast, air moves from the Pacific Ocean to the land. In winter, the water warms the air that moves over it and warms the western coastal regions of North America. In summer, the water cools the air and the western coastal regions are cooled. 21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water The central interior of a large continent usually experiences extremes of temperature. Land, with a lower specific heat capacity, gets hot in summer but cools rapidly in winter.

23 Climate of Europe Look at a world globe and notice the high latitude of Europe. Both Europe and Canada get about the same amount of the sun’s energy per square kilometer. 21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water

26 The Gulf Stream brings warm winters to Ireland and the prevailing winds off the Atlantic carry with them rain. It means grass can grow almost all year round — creating the lush sweeping pastures of the Emerald Isle. Today they make up 93 percent of all farmland. No other country in Europe has quite as much grass as Ireland.

30 Reason for the Seasons 2 2 The hemisphere tilted toward the Sun receives sunlight at higher angles than the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun. Higher insolation angle means greater intensity of radiant energy (the sun shines more directly on a smaller area). Changing Angle of Sunlight Summer in Northern Hemisphere

31 Season _________ Equinox or Solstice Season _________ Equinox or Solstice Season ________ Equinox or Solstice Season _________ Equinox or Solstice Identify the Seasons and the Equinox or Solstice, and comment about the number of daylight vs. night hours _________

32 Season _________ Equinox or Solstice Season _________ Equinox or Solstice Season _________ Equinox or Solstice Season _________ Equinox or Solstice Identify the Seasons and the Equinox or Solstice Equal day and night—12hr and 12 hr Less night hours, more daylight hours Less daylight hours, more night hours spring summer fall winter

33 FUNCTION OF A REFRIGERATOR Remove unwanted Thermal Energy from inside Deposit unwanted Thermal Energy on the outside By evaporation By condensation

34 HOW DO AIR CONDITIONERS AND REFRIGERATORS WORK?  Evaporation of refrigerant removes thermal energy from inside.  Evaporation occurs when liquid refrigerant is allowed to expand (pressure release—lowers vaporization point—heat drawn from food causes evaporation)  Condensation of refrigerant releases thermal energy to the outside  Work must be done by the compressor to compress the refrigerant gas so that the thermal energy drawn from food is released outside when the gas is forced to condense under pressure)

35  22.How do natural systems tend to proceed?

36 According to the second law of thermodynamics, in the long run, the entropy of a system always increases for natural processes. 24.7 Entropy

37 Natural systems tend to proceed toward a state of greater disorder. The universe trends from a higher state to a lower state of organization. Examples: Air flows from high to low pressure Heat flows from hot to cold 24.6 Order Tends to Disorder

38 Entropy is the measure of the amount of disorder in a system. Disorder increases; entropy increases. 24.7 Entropy

39 This run-down house demonstrates entropy. Without continual maintenance, the house will eventually fall apart. 24.7 Entropy
