- Heat Transfers
- Conduction
- Heat is thermal energy, it can transferred from one place to another by conduction
- Conduction works best in solids
- Particles gain energy and vibrate more, they collide with one another and pass energy.
- Energy is transferred by direct contact.
- Heat is thermal energy, it can transferred from one place to another by conduction
- Convection
- Heat cam be transferred from one place to another by convection.
- Particles gain energy and move more taking up more space
- Cannot take place in solids
- Heat cam be transferred from one place to another by convection.
- Radiation
- Heat can be transferred by infrared radiation
- Infrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that involves waves
- Some surfaces are better than others at reflecting and absorbing infrared radiation.
- Infrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that involves waves
- Heat can be transferred by infrared radiation
- Conduction
- Energy Efficiency
- To calculate the efficiency... useful energy transferred by the device divided by total energy supplied to the device
- The efficiency of something may be shown in a sankey diagram
- Types of energy
