Heat Transfer When objects are in thermal contact, heat is transferred from the hotter object to the cooler object There are various mechanisms by which this happens: conduction convection radiation

Thermal Conduction over distance For Newton s law of cooling, we assumed we have a system at one temperature throughout, T, and an environment at another temperature T. What if we have a system that is in contact with two different environments (thermal reservoirs) at different temperatures? The system will conduct heat from one reservoir to the other. The system will not be the same temperature throughout.

Thermal Conduction and Insulation Engineers generally prefer to quote R-values for insulation, rather than using thermal conductivity, k. For a particular material: R = L k This is its length-resistivity to heat transfer. A high value of R indicates a good insulator. The units used are ft 2 F h / Btu. (h is hours, Btu is British thermal units, 1 Btu = 1.06 kj)

Convection In liquids and gases convection is usually a larger contributor to heat transfer. In convection, the fluid itself circulates distributing hot (fast moving) molecules throughout the fluid. When there is gravity present, convection current circulations can occur.

Convection Hot fluid expands, and since it is less dense, it will have a greater buoyant force and rise. Cooler, denser fluid will tend to sink.

Convection Heat loss by convection from a person s hand: This type of convection is called free convection.

Forced Convection External energy can also drive convection by means of a pump or fan. This is used in convection ovens to evenly heat food. It is also used in cooling systems to keep cool air flowing over hot components.

Radiation Heat can also be transferred across a vacuum by radiation. This radiation takes the form of electromagnetic (em) radiation, or light. However, most of this radiation is not in the range of wavelengths that are visible to us. Light carries energy, so this an energy transfer. Dark colored surfaces absorb and emit radiation more readily that white or shiny surfaces.

Stefan s Law How fast does a hot object radiate away energy? where P is power P = σaet 4 σ = 5.6696 10 8 W m 2 K 4 A is the surface area of the object e is the emissivity (0 e 1 always) T is temperature The net rate of energy change depends on the difference in temperature T, between an object and its environment. P net = σae(t 4 o T 4 e )

Emissivity and Absorptivity Properties of a surface tell us how it will interact with light. emissivity, e (or ɛ), ratio of emitted energy to the amount that would be radiated if the object were a perfect black body absorptivity, α, the ratio of energy absorbed to energy incident These are not independent of each other, and both depends on the wavelength of light.

Emissivity and Absorptivity Kirchhoff s law of thermal radiation can be stated (this isn t how Kirchhoff stated it): For an arbitrary body emitting and absorbing thermal radiation in thermodynamic equilibrium, the emissivity is equal to the absorptivity. This is true for every wavelength: e(λ) = α(λ). For perfect blackbodies e = 1. Very reflective surfaces have low e and α.

Emissivity and Absorptivity Why are survival and rescue blankets now made out of shiny material?

Light (Electromagnetic Radiation) Light travels at this fixed speed, c = 3.00 10 8 m s 1. For any wave, if v is the wave propogation speed: v = f λ For light: c = f λ So, if the frequency of the light is given, you also know the wavelength, and vice versa. λ = c f ; f = c λ

Electromagnetic spectrum

Blackbody Radiation All objects radiate light with characteristic wavelengths depending on the object s temperature. Hotter objects emit light with shorter wavelengths (on average). 1 Graph from Wikipedia, created by user Darth Kule.

Blackbody Radiation: Wien s Law Wien s (Displacement) Law relates the peak wavelength emitted by a blackbody to its temperature: λ max = b T b = 2.898 10 3 m K is a constant. 1 Figure from HyperPhysics.

Radiation People emit light as well, but the wavelengths corresponding to our body temperature are longer than what we can see with the naked eye. Humans and warm-blooded animals radiate infrared radiation. ( below red )

Visible vs. Infrared radiation

Radiation Objects much hotter than the human body will radiate at shorter wavelengths that are visible to us.

The Greenhouse Effect Gardeners use greenhouses, huts made of glass or transparent plastic, to keep plants warm. The effect that causes this to work is called the greenhouse effect. The Sun is very hot and emits a lot of radiation in the visible (shorter) wavelengths. Objects on Earth absorb this radiation and emit there own. However, since object on the Earth are substantially cooler than the Sun, the wavelengths re-emitted are longer. The glass allows the shorter wavelengths through, but traps the longer wavelengths.

Kinetic Theory of Gases We have already started to study what happens in thermodynamic systems to bulk properties in various transformations. However, just from looking at macroscopic quantities it is not entirely clear how to interpret pressure, or what temperature or heat actually is. Statistical thermodynamics seeks to explain how these macroscopic quantities arise from the microscopic behavior of particles, on average. We cannot model every the motion of every single particle in a substance, but we can say a lot about the ensemble of particles statistically.

Molecular Model of an Ideal Gas The gas particle bounces back and forth between the left and right walls. We do not know how long it interacts with the wall for each time, but what we can know, and is more useful, is what is the average force on the wall over a long period of time. The time between the particle hitting the right wall once and hitting it again is t = 2d v x So the average force on the wall from the one particle over long periods of time is F = m 0v 2 x d i

Molecular Model of an Ideal Gas In a gas, there will be many particles (assume each has mass m 0 ) interacting with each wall in this way. The ith particle exerts a force on the wall: F i = m 0vxi 2 i d (we ignore collisions between particles, since they are small and density is low) The magnitude of the total force on the wall is: F = m 0 d N i=1 v 2 xi where N is the number of particles.

Molecular Model of an Ideal Gas We can re-write the sum N i=1 v 2 xi in terms of the average of the x-component of the velocity squared: F = m 0 d N v 2 x We can already relate this force to a pressure, but first, let s relate it to the average translational kinetic energy of a particle.

Molecular Model of an Ideal Gas For a particle in 3-dimensions: v 2 i = v 2 xi + v 2 yi + v 2 zi If this is true for each individual particle, it is true for averages over many particles automatically: v 2 = v 2 x + v 2 y + v 2 z Is there any reason why the particles should have different motion in the y, z directions than the x direction? (We neglect long range forces, like gravity.)

Molecular Model of an Ideal Gas becomes: F = m 0 d N v 2 x F = 1 m 0 3 d N v 2 = 2 N 3 d K trans where K trans = 1 2 m 0v 2 is the average translational kinetic energy of a particle.

Pressure from the Molecular Model Using P = F /A, the pressure at the wall and throughout the gas is P = 2 N 3 Ad K trans which, since V = Ad = d 3 we can write as: P = 2 N 3 V K trans This relates the pressure in the gas to the average translational kinetic energy of the particles. More K.E., or less volume higher pressure.

Relation to Macroscopic view of an Ideal Gas Ideal gas equation: or equivalently: PV = nrt PV = Nk B T If we put our new expression for pressure into this equation: 2 3 N K trans = Nk B T We can cancel N from both sides and re-arrange: K trans = 1 2 m 0v 2 = 3 2 k BT

Temperature from the Molecular Model We can also relate temperature to molecular motion! T = 2 3k b K trans Temperature is directly proportional to the translational kinetic energy of the particles.

RMS Speed and Temperature K = 1 2 m 0v 2 = 3 2 k BT It would also be useful to express the average speed in terms of the temperature. Since the motion of the gas molecules are isotropic, the average velocity is zero. However, we can instead consider the root-mean-square (rms) speed. That is convenient here because we have the average of the squares of the speed, not the average speed itself.

RMS Speed and Temperature root-mean-square (rms) speed: 3kB v rms = v 2 T = m 0 Alternatively, it can be expressed 3RT v rms = M where M is the molar mass. rms speed is higher for less massive molecules for a given temperature.

RMS Speed Question An ideal gas is maintained at constant pressure. If the temperature of the gas is increased from 200 K to 600 K, what happens to the rms speed of the molecules? (A) It increases by a factor of 3. (B) It remains the same. (C) It is one-third the original speed. (D) It is 3 times the original speed. 1 Serway & Jewett, page 644, question 2.
