Convection
Radiation
Heat Transfer
Thermal energy flows from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature.
This transfer of energy is called heat transfer Occurs in 3 ways:
Conduction, Convection, Radiation.
Heat Transfer
Heat always moves from a warmer place to a cooler place. Hot objects in a cooler room will cool to room temperature. Cold objects in a warmer room will heat up to room temperature.
Conduction
Conduction is the process of thermal energy transfer without any movement of the material itself.
Conduction
Conduction is a way of transferring heat through the contact of objects.
Conductors of Heat
Examples:
Insulators of Heat
Examples:
Process of Conduction
Thermal energy is passed along the rod by the vibrating molecules.
Molecules pass the vibration to neighboring molecules
Vibration transfers energy from molecule to molecule until cold end reaches same temperature as hot end No net movement of molecule during conduction.

Conduction
When you heat a metal strip at one end, the heat travels to the other end.
As you heat the metal, the particles vibrate, these vibrations make the adjacent particles vibrate, and so on and so on, the vibrations are passed along the metal and so is the heat. We call this? Conduction
16
Insulators, such as w___ ood and p____, lastic do not have this sea of electrons which is why they do not conduct heat as well as metals.
Why does metal feel colder than wood, if they are both at the same temperature?
Metal is a conductor, wood is an insulator. Metal conducts the heat away from your hands. Wood does not conduct the heat away from your hands as well as the metal, so the wood feels warmer than the metal.

Convection
Convection is the transfer of thermal energy by means of currents in a fluid
fluid: liquid or gas
Convection only occur in fluids because it involves the bulk movement of fluid.
this movement is known as convection current
20
Convection is heat transfer through a fluid with the hotter molecules rising and the cooler ones sinking.
Process of Convection
When a liquid is heated, it expands, becomes less dense and floats upwards. Cold and denser liquid moves down to replace the rising liquid masses. This cold liquid, in turn, gets heated up. This circulation of liquid is known as convection current. The convection current brings thermal energy to other parts of the liquid.
cooler water is more dense and falls hotter water is less dense and rises

Convection in a Gas
Freezer compartment It is warmer at the bottom, so this warmer air rises and a convection current is set up.
It is put at the top, because cool air sinks, so it cools the food on the way down.
Question Time!
Question: When the water at the top of the test tube is boiling, has the ice melted? Explain.
Answer: The ice does not melt completely even though the water at the surface is already boiling.
test tube
bunsen flame
This is because water is a bad conductor of heat. Since hot water rises, most of the glass marble heat energy from the flame do not get transferred to the ice due to convection nor conduction. ice
Hence the bottom of the test tube stays cool and the region above the flame becomes warm.

Uses of convection
Electric kettle
heating element is placed at the bottom the heating element heats up the water at the bottom This water expands, becomes less dense and rises Cooler water from other regions replaces the rising hot water The cooler water is heated by the heater and the process repeats. A convection current is set up to aid in the transfer of thermal energy in the water.
28
Uses of convection
Hot Water System
based on convection principle Consists of a boiler, water storage tank and cold tank interconnected by pipes Convection currents drive hot water from the top of boiler into hot water storage tank. Cold water from storage tank is drawn down to the boiler where it in turn becomes heated.
29
Practice 2
Explain why the air-conditioner is placed near the ceiling.
the air-conditioner will cool the air around it. the cooler air will contract, become more dense and sinks. the warmer air from other regions will replace the sinking cool air. the warmer air is cooled by the air-conditioner and the process repeats a convection current is set up that helps to cool the whole room

Radiation
Thinking Question:
Life on Earth depends on the energy we receive from the Sun. Can the thermal energy reach Earth via conduction or convection?
31
There are no particles between the Sun and the Earth so it CANNOT travel by conduction or by convection.
RADIATION
Radiation
Radiation is heat transfer through space.
Radiation
Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy without the use of any medium
can transfer across vacuum
The thermal energy is transmitted via the emission of infrared radiation from the surface of the body.
all objects radiate some radiant heat

Uses of radiation
To keep cool:
white houses silvered surfaces
(e.g. car sun shades)
To increase absorption
black, rough surface of stoves and pans black painted heat exchanger pipes

Vacuum Flask
Vacuum Flask
Reduces transfer of thermal energy by conduction, convection and radiation Consists of a double-walled glass container with a vacuum in between Silvered walls on vacuum side Container supported by foam plastic, a poor conductor
39
Vacuum Flask
No heat can enter or leave flask by conduction or convection across the vacuum Inner silvered surface reflects radiation from hot fluids back into flask Outer silvered surface reflects radiation in external surroundings away from flask Foam plastic support and plastic cap minimises heat transmitted by conduction through thin glass walls Plastic cap stops convection and evaporation

Convection questions
Why does hot air rise and cold air sink? Cool air is more dense than warm air, so the cool air falls through the warm air. Why are boilers placed beneath hot water tanks in peoples homes? Hot water rises. So when the boiler heats the water, and the hot water rises, the water tank is filled with hot water.
Radiation questions
Why are houses painted white in hot countries? White reflects heat radiation and keeps the house cooler.
Why are shiny foil blankets wrapped around marathon runners at the end of a race?
The shiny metal reflects the heat radiation from the runner back in, this stops the runner getting cold.
