2 Methods of eat Transfer Conduction- from molecule to molecule Conduction eat Source Convection - by movement of heated air Metal bar Radiation - energy passing from one object to another without a connecting medium Long wave loss from Earth Short wave gained from the sun Earth
3 1. ow many molecules of air are in a cubic meter? 2.69 x Questions 1 and 2 1. If six billion people count 1000 molecules per hour, it would take 511 million years to count the number of molecules in 1 m 3 26,900,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules m The air is mostly nitrogen? (T/F)? False 2. Air is mostly empty space. Less than 0.1% of the volume is occupied by molecules orstmeyer, S Weatherwise 54:20-27.
4 Questions 3 and 4 3. Which molecules move faster? A. nitrogen B. oxygen C. carbon dioxide D. water vapor 4. When saturated, the air cannot hold more water vapor (T/F)? 3. At 30 o C, velocities N Km h-1 O Km h -1 CO Km h -1 2 O Km h False! Less than 0.1% of volume is occupied. Air can hold more water. orstmeyer, S Weatherwise 54:20-27.
5 Questions 5 5. ow many molecule collisions per second occur in a m 3 of air? 5. There are about 595 trillion collisions per second between air molecules in a m 3 of air. 26,900,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules m -3 Occupy < 0.1% volume 595,000,000,000,000 collisions/sec orstmeyer, S Weatherwise 54:20-27.
6 Sensible eat & Temperature Lower temperature Less sensible heat igher temperature More sensible heat
7 Water Molecules consist of one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms O Water Molecule
8 Methods of eat Transfer Latent eat - Chemical eat When water molecules evaporate, sensible heat is changed to latent heat and the temperature drops When water molecules condense, latent heat is changed to sensible heat and the temperature rises O O
9 More Water Vapor More Latent eat Energy breaks our hydrogen bonds and sets us free O O O I am a free water vapor molecule O O O O O O Latent heat
10 Questions 6 6. Your ice cream will melt faster at 35% R than at 75% R (T/F)? 6. False, there is more total heat in humid than in dry air to melt the ice cream
11 Which wet towel dries fastest? T a = 30 o C 30 % R 70 % R Adiabatic Process
12 Questions 7 7. Is there evaporation in a greenhouse with 100% relative humidity? 7. Yes! But both the temperature and vapor pressure must increase following the saturation vapor pressure curve. Diabatic Process

17 Diffuse Radiation (q)( Solar radiation that is scattered by the sky and comes from all directions. During much of the day, about 10 to 15% of the radiation received on a flat surface is diffuse radiation. The diffuse radiation is nearly the same regardless of the surface orientation. The percentage of diffuse radiation is higher near sunrise and sunset.
