What is Heat??

Heat = Thermal Energy!!

Thermal Energy = the total energy of all of the particlesmaterial or object.

Throughout the ages people have invented a variety odevices to help create and capture heat for use.

Temperature

Temperature is a measure of hotness or coldneS.I. unit: Kelvin (K)

Celsius scale(Practical Scale)

Temperature (in degree Celsius) =

Temperature in Kelvin  – 273.15

Note: 0o C = 273.15 K

100o C = 373.15 K

The current working temperature scale is the International Scale of 1990 (ITS-90) and is measured in degrees Celsius

Measuring Temperature

1. The length is taken at 0o C (inmelting ice) = l0

2. The length is taken at 100o C(in boiling water) = l100

3. A graph of temperature versuslength is plotted

4. Any temperature can then beread from the graph = lθ

180°F = 9°F = 1.8°F

100°C 5°C 1°C

• In the formula for the Fahrenheit temperature,adding 32 adjusts the zero point of water from 0°C

to 32°F.

The Kelvin temperature scale

• has 100 units between the freezing and boiling pointsof water.

100 K = 100°C or 1 K = 1°C

• is obtained by adding 273 to the Celsius temperature.

TK = TC + 273

• contains the lowest possible temperature, absolutezero (0 K).

0 K =  – 273°C

Thermometers measure temperature.

Note:

1. Temperature is a number which gives the degreof a body on a chosen scale. (degree at whichoccurred).

2. When we measure temperature we measure a tproperty.

3. Two different thermometers do not necessarily givreading at the same temperature. Different Th

properties vary differently with temperature

• A thermometric property is needed, such as the length of acolumn of liquid in a glass tube

•Use un-graduated thermometer.

•Place in pure melting ice, mark position = l0 (0 on celsius scale)

The Liquid in Glass Thermometer

The Liquid in Glass thermometer utilizes the variation in volume

temperature.

They use the fact that most fluids expand on heating. The fluid is

sealed glass bulb, and its expansion is measured using a scale

stem of the thermometer If we consider that the thermom

expand then as physical property it utilizes the variation of lengttemperature.

Liquid in Glass thermometers have been used in science, medic

and industry for almost 300 years.

Liquids commonly used include Mercury and Alcohol.

Two basic parts:

a. The bulb:

Acting as a reservoir holding the liquid whosevolume changes with temperature. The Bulbalso acts as a sensor or gauge which isinserted in the body whose temperature is tobe measured

b. The Stem:

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/note-1-temperature-thermometers 36/72

The mercury in glass therm

Invented by German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, is a

thermometer consisting of mercury in a glass tube.

Calibrated marks on the tube allow the temperature to be length of the mercury within the tube, which varies accordi

temperature.

To increase the sensitivity, there is usually a bulb of mercury

the thermometer which contains most of the mercury; expa

contraction of this volume of mercury is then amplified in th

narrower bore of the tube. The space above the mercury m

with nitrogen or it may be a vacuum.

Range: Covering a wide temperature range from -38 °C to

although the introduction of a instrument can increase the

°C or beyond.

Advantages:

1. Mercury is a naturally opaque liquid (Silver). This means

directly utilized in its pure form

2. Mercury does not wet glass. When it moves up and dow

capillary strong cohesive properties of mercury do not allo

any traces on the inside of the capillary.

3. Mercury is a liquid metal. As a metal it has high conduc

that allow it to be more sensitive than the alcohol in glass

Disadvantages:

1. Mercury poses a potential toxic hazard if the glass cont

ruptured.

 Alcohol in glass therm

As a liquid it utilises ethyl alcohol, toluene and technpentane, which can be used down to -200 °C.

Range c. -200°C to 80°C, though range tends to be dependent on the type of alcohol used.

Advantages:

1. It can measure very low temperatures.

Disadvantages:

1. Alcohol is transparent therefore it requires a dye tvisible. Dyes tend to add impurities that may not hatemperature range as the alcohol making reading

The gas thermometers can be classified into two based on t

method by which the gas can be heated. They are,

Constant Pressure Gas Thermometer 

Constant Volume Gas Thermometer.

The constant pressure gas thermometer is not used in practi

because of the errors which arise due to the non – uniformi

bore.

The constant volume gas thermometer is the most accurat

laboratory thermometer and is used for the calibration of o

thermometers.

CONSTANT VOLUME GAS THERMOM

When we heat a gas keeping the volume copressure increases and when we cool the gas

decreases.

The relationship between pressure and temp

MERITS

Gas thermometers are more sensitive when compared to other t

They work uniformly and regularly over a wide range of tempe

They can be used to measure low and high temperatures and ha

range of operation. ( – 200oC to 1600oC)

Since the expansion of glass is negligible when compared to ththe gas the error due to expansion of glass is negligible.

Resistance thermometers come in a number of co

The resistance of a conductor is related to its temperature.

Platinum is usually used due to its stability with temperature.

The Platinum detecting wire needs to be kept free of contaminatio

stable.

A Platinum wire or film is created and supported on a former in suc

gets minimal differential expansion or other strains from its former, y

reasonably resistant to vibration.

3. Very accurate

Disadvantages

1. Compared to liquid in glass thermometers, they tenexpensive.

2. Require other equipment to measure temperature.

3. They exhibit high heat capacities thus they are not temperature change meaning that they cannot be umeasure rapid temperature changes.

Wires made up of two different metals aretwisted together.

When the wire tips are heated, a smallelectric current is generated

The amount of current depends on thetemperature.

They can measure higher temperatures than

thermometers. The electric current can be used to turn

switches on or off if the temperaturechanges.

Used in kilns, diesel engines and industrialfurnaces

As a Thermometric property thermocouplesutilize the variation of EMF generated at abimetallic junction with temperature.

In 1821, the German-Estonian physicistThomas Johann Seebeck discovered thatwhen any conductor (such as a metal) issubjected to a thermal gradient, it willgenerate a voltage. This is now known asthe thermoelectric effect or Seebeck  effect.

Many different thermocouple combinations have been used

are standardized.

These include 3 noble metal thermocouples using platinum a

rhodium alloys, widely used for temperature measurement u

The remaining 5 mainly use nickel-based alloys, which are ch

more suitable for industrial use up to about 1200 °C.

Other refractory alloys can be used up to and beyond 2000

Advantages:

1. Cheap to manufacture.

2. The simplicity, ruggedness, low cost, small

size and wide temperature range of

thermocouples make them the most

common type of temperature sensor in

industrial use.

3. Low heat capacities making it capable

of measuring rapid temperature changes.

Kelvin is another way of measuring temperature.

Scientists use Kelvin to explain the behaviour of gases.

“Absolute Zero” is measured in Kelvin – which is the coldest ptemperature

The sensor produces a signal (information about temperatureelectrical current) which affects a responder (a pointer, light mechanism that uses the signal in some way)
