Specialty Definition: Heat

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In physics, the relationship between heat and energy is similar to that between work and energy. Heat is said to flow from areas of high temperature to areas of low temperature. All objects have a certain amount of energy within them that is related to the random motion of their atoms. This internal energy is directly proportional to the temperature of the object. When two bodies of different temperature come in to thermal contact, they will exchange internal energy until the temperature is equalized. The amount of energy transferred is the amount of heat exchanged. It is a common misconception to confuse heat with internal energy, but there is a difference, and understanding the difference is a necessary part of understanding the first law of thermodynamics.

Changes of Temperature

The amount of heat energy, , required to change the temperature of a material from an initial temperature, T0, to a final temperature, Tf depends on the heat capacity of that material according to the relationship:

The heat capacity is dependent on both the amount of material that is exchanging heat and its properties. The heat capacity can be broken up in several different ways. First of all, it can be represented as a product of mass and specific heat capacity (more commonly called specific heat):

Cp = m cs

or the number of moless and the molar heat capacity:

Cp = n cmolar

Both the molar and specific heat capacities only depend upon the physical properties of the substance being heated, not on any specific properties of the sample. The above definitions of heat capacity only work approximately for solids and liquids, but for gases they don't work at all most of the time. The molar heat capacity can be "patched up" if the changes of temperature occur at either a constant volume or constant pressure. Otherwise, it's generally easiest to use the first law of thermodynamics in combination with an equation relating the internal energy of the gas to its temperature.

Changes of State

A boiling pot of water, at sea level and normal atmospheric pressure, will always be at 100oC no matter how much heat is added. The extra heat changes the state of the water from liquid into water vapor. The heat added to change the state of a substance in this way is said to be "hidden," and thus it is called latent heat (from a Latin word for hidden). Latent heat is the rate of heat per unit mass necessary to change the state of a given substance. Thus:

dQ/dm = L (should this be a partial derivative or a full one?)

and:

where Mo is the amount of mass initially in the new phase, and M is the amount of mass that ends up in the new phase.

L generally doesn't depend on the amount of mass that changes phase, so the equation can normally be written:

Q = L Δm

Sometimes L can be time-dependent if pressure and volume are time-varying, so that the integral can be handled:

Q = ∫L (dm/dt) dt

someone check the above, please, to see if the latent heat really depends on where on the (P, V, T) curve the transition is taking place.

How Heat Moves

As mentioned previously, heat tends to move from a high temperature region to a low temperature region. This heat transfer may occur by any of three mechanisms, conduction, convection, and radiation.

Conduction is the most common means of heat transfer in a solid. On a microscopic scale, conduction occurs as hot, rapidly moving or vibrating atoms and molecules interact with neighboring atoms and molecules, transferring some of their energy (heat) to these neighboring atoms.

Convection is usually the dominant form of heat transfer in liquids and gases. In convection, heat transfer occurs by the movement of hot or cold portions of the fluid. For example, when water is heated on a stove, hot water from the bottom of the pan rises, heating the water at the top of the pan. Two types of convection are commonly distinguished, free convection, in which gravity and buoyancy forces drive the fluid movement, and forced convection, where a fan, stirrer, or other means is used to move the fluid.

Radiation is the final means of heat transfer. Radiative heat transfer is the only form of heat transfer that can occur in the absence of any form of medium and as such is the only means of heat transfer through a vacuum. Thermal radiation is a direct result of the movements of atoms and molecules in a material. Since these atoms and molecules are composed of charged particles (protons and electrons), their movements result in the emission of electromagnetic radiation, which carries energy away from the surface. At the same time, the surface is constantly bombarded by radiation from the surroundings, resulting in the transfer of energy to the surface. Since the amount of emitted radiation increases with increasing temperature, a net transfer of energy from higher temperatures to lower temperatures results.

Other Important Heat Transfer Mechanisms

Latent Heat

Transfer of heat through a physical change in the medium such as water/ice or water/steam involves significant energy and is exploited in many ways steam engine, refrigerator etc.

Heat Pipe

A heat transfer mechanism using latent heat and capilliary action to move heat. A heat pipe can carry many times as much heat as a similar sized copper rod and is starting to have applications in laptop personal computers.

Heat pump

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

A heat pump does what its name implies: it moves heat from one point to another. There are several physical effects used to create heat pumps. The three most common are gas compression, gas/liquid phase change, and the thermo-peltier effect. Refrigerators are the commonest domestic appliance making use of a heat pump. Refrigerators making use of all three types of heat pump can be found. Heating systems which make use of heat pumps are also available. Finally gas compression heat pumps using the Stirling cycle are commonly used to liquefy air in order to produce liquid nitrogen, oxygen, argon, etc. for industrial purposes.

In a Carnot heat engine, e.g. a steam engine, we are usually interested in producing work (e.g. electrical energy) out of heat. The Second law of thermodynamics makes that rather difficult and puts severe restrictions on the efficiency of such a process. Only part of the heat available, say, from burning fuel can be transformed into useful work, and the rest must be dumped in a cold reservoir (e.g. the river).

In a heat pump the desired product is heat. There is no restriction on transforming work (electricity) into heat. That means that in an electrical heater 100 joules (watt seconds) of electricity will give 100 joules of brand new heat. In a heat pump we can do more. We can use the electrical power to run the heat pump to move existing heat about.

A phase change heat pump employs a liquid with a low boiling point, once typically freon (CFC), now generally liquid ammonia, or occasionally the less corrosive propane or butane. This liquid requires energy (called latent heat) to evaporate, and it drains that energy from its surroundings in the form of heat (in the same way that sweating cools the body). When the vapour condenses again, it releases the energy, again in the form of heat.

First the liquid's pressure is lowered by an expansion valve on the side that is to cool down, forcing it to evaporate and extract heat from its surroundings. The gas is then pumped to the other side (the compressor) where it is compressed into a liquid, causing it to release its heat.

The result is that on the end of the pump where the heat is dumped, we get the heat that was pumped from one side to the other plus the amount of heat that corresponds to the electrical power we used to run the engine (100 joules per second).

How much heat we can pump depends on the difference in temperature between where we pump from (outside) and where we dump it (inside). The colder outside the less we can pump. If the pump is based on the phase change principle, in very cold weather the machine stops working when the outdoor part, the condenser, freezes. In these conditions a simple electric heater works better unless the phase change heat pump is replaced by a more suitable type such as a gas compression device.

When comparing the performance of heat pumps, it is best to avoid the word "efficiency", as it has many different meanings. The term coefficient of performance or COP is used to describe the ratio of heat output to electrical power consumption. A typical heat pump has a COP of about three, whereas an electric heater has a COP of just one.

Another advantage of heat pumps is that they can be operated in reverse to cool down the room. This makes them a useful component of air-conditioning systems.
