Introduction to Heat �Heat is a form of energy. �A large amount of energy

Introduction to Heat �Heat is a form of energy. �A large amount of energy ends up as heat. �Example: in a car some of the chemical energy stored in petrol is turned into heat energy. �Heat can have a significant effect on solids, liquids and gases (such as expansion).

Effects of Heat �Heat can cause a solid to expand which can be seen

Effects of Heat �Heat can cause a solid to expand which can be seen in passing a metal ball through a ring. �When cold, the ball will pass through the ring but when heated it won’t pass through. �A bimetallic strip is made of two different metals riveted together. � When heated, one metal expands more than the other causing the strip to bend. It then straightens when cooled. � Bimetallic Coil

Temperature and Heat �Temperature is the measure of the hotness or coldness of a body. �Temperature determines whether or not heat will flow and which way it will flow. Hot Transfer of heat Cold �Heat will flow from one body to another only if there is a difference in temperature between them. �When we heat a body we are giving it energy. �As the temperature rises, the kinetic energy of the molecules rises.

Thermometric Properties �For the accurate measurement of temperature, scientists choose some physical property that changes measurably as temperature changes. �This property is called a Thermometric Property. �There a number of different Thermometric Properties: �Length of a column of liquid: When a liquid is heated it expands (its volume increases). In a thermometer the length of the column of liquid increases as the liquid expands. Thus as the temperature increases, the length of the column of liquid increases.

Thermometric Properties �Emf of a thermocouple: if two different metals are joined together to form a complete circuit and the two junctions maintained at different temperatures, a small emf appears in the circuit which causes a very small electric current to flow. �The emf can be measured using a voltmeter. �The greater the temperature difference between the junctions, the greater the emf.

Thermometric Properties �Electrical Resistance: The electrical resistance of a conductor changes with temperature. �For a metal, the resistance increases with increasing temperature. �For a semiconductor or carbon, the resistance decreases with increasing temperature. �Resistance is thermometric property on which the resistance thermometer is based.

Thermometric Properties �Colour: The colour of certain crystals change with temperature. This is the basis of one form of thermometer used to measure the temperature of your body. �The colour of a very hot object changes as its temperature rises; e. g. a piece of iron changes from a dull brown to red, to bright red, then yellow, then white.

Thermometric Properties �Volume of a gas at constant pressure: The diagram shows a gas

Thermometric Properties �Volume of a gas at constant pressure: The diagram shows a gas syringe. It contains a fixed mass of gas and a rubber cap seals one end. �The gas is at constant pressure due to atmospheric pressure acting on the piston at the other end. �If the temperature of the gas is increased by heating it, the volume of the gas will increase and push the piston out. �If the gas is cooled then the volume decreases and the piston moves in.

Thermometric Properties �Pressure of a gas at constant volume: A gas syringe can also

Thermometric Properties �Pressure of a gas at constant volume: A gas syringe can also be used to show the pressure of a fixed volume of gas varies with temperature. � In the diagram the volume of the gas is noted. �The gas is then heated. �To keep the volume at the same value, weights will have to be placed on the end of the syringe. �The larger the rise in temperature, the greater the weights that must be added.

Using a Thermometric Property to Measure Temperature �Use an ungraduated mercury-in-class thermometer. �The length of the column of mercury is thermometric property. �Place thermometer in pure melting ice and mark the position of the top of the column of mercury. (0 °C). �Place thermometer in the steam above pure boiling water and mark the position. (100 °C). �Remove thermometer and measure the lengths of the columns of mercury; call these lengths Lice and Lsteam.

Using a Thermometric Property to Measure Temperature �Problem: �The length of the mercury column in a capillary tube is 3. 2 cm when the tube is placed in melting ice. �In the steam above the boiling water its length is 22. 3 cm. �If the length of the column when placed in a beaker of water is 10 cm, by using a suitable graph, calculate the temperature of the water in °C, according to this thermometer.

Disagreement Between Thermometers �If two different types of thermometer (mercury-in-glass and resistance thermometer) are created in this way, they will give the temperature as 0 °C in melting ice and 100 °C in steam. �However, in general, they will disagree at other temperatures. �Different thermometric properties do not change proportionally with the same change in degree of hotness. �To get agreement on the quantity temperature we therefore need a standard thermometer. �Mercury-in-glass thermometer is a school standard.

Practical Use of Thermometers �A clinical thermometer is used to measure body temperature. �The clinical thermometer has a narrow constriction in, so that when removed from the patient the mercury does not fall and can be read accurately. �An infra-red radiation thermometer is inserted into the ear and infra-red radiation emitted from the ear drum is detected and the patient’s temperature is obtained. �The plastic strip thermometer is also used.

Heat Transfer �Heat can be transferred from one place to another by conduction, convection and radiation. �Conduction is the movement of heat energy through a substance by the passing on of molecular vibration from molecule to molecule.

Conduction �If one end of an object is at a higher temperature than the

Conduction �If one end of an object is at a higher temperature than the other, the molecular vibration is passed on from the hotter end to the cooler end. �Substances in which this happens easily are called good thermal conductors (e. g. metals). �Substances in which it only happens a little are called thermal insulators (e. g. air, water).

Convection �Convection is the transfer of heat through a fluid by means of circulating

Convection �Convection is the transfer of heat through a fluid by means of circulating currents of fluid caused by the heat. �When the lower part of the fluid is heated, it expands and becomes less dense. It rises above the cooler fluid. �This movement is called a convection current. �Water in domestic heating systems may circulate by convection with a pump usually used to speed up the flow of water through the system.

Solar Heating �Solar heating is using the sun’s energy to heat something. In some solar panels water flowing in black pipes under glass absorbs heat and heats the water. �In another method, a solar panel consisting of photocells converts the Sun’s energy into electrical energy which can be used for heating or other purposes.

� Read the following passage and answer the accompanying questions. � The sun is a major source of ‘green’ energy. In Ireland solar heating systems and geothermal systems are used to get energy from the sun. � There are two main types of solar heating systems, flat-plate collectors and vacuumtube collectors. � A flat-plate collector is usually an aluminium box with a glass cover on top and a blackened plate on the bottom. A copper pipe is laid on the bottom of the box, like a hose on the ground; water is passed through the pipe and transfers the absorbed heat to the domestic hot water system. � In a vacuum-tube collector, each tube consists of an evacuated double-walled silvered glass tube in which there is a hollow copper pipe containing a liquid. The liquid inside the copper pipe is vaporised and expands into the heat tip. There the vapour liquefies and the latent heat released is transferred, using a heat exchanger, to the domestic hot water system. The condensed liquid returns to the copper pipe and the cycle is repeated. � In a geothermal heating system a heat pump is used to extract solar energy stored in the ground and transfer it to the domestic hot water system. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Why is the bottom of a flat-plate collector blackened? How much energy is required to raise the temperature of 500 litres of water from 20°C to 50°C? The liquid in a vacuum-tube solar collector has a large specific latent heat of vaporisation. Explain why. Name three ways in which heat could be lost from a vacuum-tube solar collector. How is the sun’s energy trapped in a vacuum-tube solar collector? Describe, in terms of heat transfer, the operation of a heat pump. Give an advantage of a geothermal heating system over a solar heating system.
