17 Heat versus Temperature t Heat is measured in BTUs t Heat is the energy in a substance t Temperature is measured in degrees t Temperature is the intensity level

18 Heat Transfer

19 Changes in state of matter

20 Heat of Vaporization t A specific amount of heat is needed to change a liquid to a vapor t Known as latent heat t Latent heat of water 970 BTU/lb t Latent of 134 A 93 BTU/lb

Vaporization and Condensation t Vaporization is is the addition of latent heat to a liquid t Condensation is the removal of latent heat from a liquid. 21

22 Pressure Temperature t The pressure acting on a liquid is increased, the boiling point of the liquid increases t Lowering the pressure acting on a liquid lowers its boiling point

Effects of pressure on gases and vapors Low pressure low temperature High pressure high temperature 23
