What is HE@T?
Heat
is the form of energy that can be transferr ed from one system to another as a result of tempera ture difference. The science that deals with the determination of the rates of energy transfers is heat transfer. Whenever there exists a temperature difference i n a medium or between media, heat transfer must o ccur. The larger the temperature gradient, the higher the rate of heat transfer.
Heat (energy) always move from war mer substance to cooler substance

Heat will continue to move until both su bstances are the same temperature.

Heat Transfer
Only an amount of e nergy(heat) Makes no references to how long the proce ss will take Deals with systems i n equilibrium
Experiment actual physical system but expensive, time consumi ng, impractical Analytical numerical approach, fast & inexpensive, results sub ject to accuracy of the assumption
Heat
Total energy,E - sum of all energies Internal Energy,u - energy at molecular str ucture Sensible heat - internal energy of a system associated with kinetic energy of molec ules Latent heat - internal energy associated wit h phase of the system
Specific heat
- The energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a subs tance by 1 degree
Energy transfer
2 ways: Heat, Q and Work, W Q an energy is heat transfer if the driving f orce is temperature - heat transfer rate (per unit time. J/s) W- energy other than above; rotating shafts, moving piston
EXAMPLES.
Touch the black car in t he summer and the hea t from the car transfers i nto your hand.
A breeze makes you fe el cooler because the w ind transfers heat away from your body.
