The Concept of Heat(Thermodynamics)
Module 1
Module 1Thermodynamics
Thermodynamics:
1. Energy is always conserved; it is never lost.2. Heat always travels from a “hot” region to a “colder” region.
Therefore, the issue is:• Flow of Heat• Heat Flow•Heat Transfer
Module 1Thermodynamics
Module 1Thermodynamics
Heat Transfer
Radiation ~ Electromagnetic Waves
Conduction ~ Molecule Movement
Convection ~ Air Current
Module 1Thermodynamics
• Conduction
• Convection
• Radiation
Heat Transfer Modes
Heat transfer for conductionand for convection is directly proportional to the driving temperature differential. Double the difference to double the heat transfer rate ( T1 – T2 )
Module 1Thermodynamics
• Conduction
• Convection
• Radiation
Heat Transfer Modes
Heat transfer by radiation is proportional to the fourth power of the temperature difference ( T1
4 – T24 ).
Small changes in temperature can create relatively large changes in radiation heat transfer rates.

Radiation Intensity
• The closer to the sun a body is, the more rays it will intercept.
• Closer to the sun, the intensity can be so great that we could not survive.
Module 3Heat Transfer (II)
• A 7 story building is exposed to more radiation on the walls than on the roof.
• A single story building receives 70% of it’s radiation on the roof.

Module 3Heat Transfer (II)
•Away from every point on the surface.•In a straight line.•In any direction.•With the greatest intensity perpendicular to the surface.•With the least intensity parallel with the receiving surface (zero intensity).
Module 3Heat Transfer (II)
The radiation from a metal roof, a concrete surface or other opaque material originates within a few microns of the surface; hence emissivity (the rate of radiation emitted by a given surface) is a function of the surface state of a material rather than of its bulk properties.
For this reason, the emissivity of a coated or painted surface is characteristic of the coating rather than of the underlying surface.

What’s a Black Body?
•A theoretical body•With properties such that…•It will absorb all (100%) radiation falling on its surface•Reflecting and transmitting none•But it will emit radiation depending on its absolute temperature.
Module 4Processes in

Black Body Radiation
Module 4Processes in
Radiation
Absorbs all radiation(energy converts to heat)
•Allows no convection•Reflects no radiation•Transmits no radiation
In-coming irradiation(energy)
Emits radiation (depending on its absolute temperature)
(Absorptivity) + (Reflectivity) + τ (Transmissivity) = 1
Black Body Radiation
Module 4Processes in
Radiation
A + R + T = 1
Since there is no Reflectivity R = 0&Since there is no Transmissivity T = 0ThenAbsoptivity must equal one A = 1
(Absorptivity) + (Reflectivity) + τ (Transmissivity) = 1
Black Body Radiation
Module 4Processes in
Radiation
Absorbs all radiation(energy converts to heat)
•No Reflectivity•No Transmissivity•No Convection
In-coming irradiation(G)
Emits ( ε ) all radiation
If all in-coming G (energy) is absorbed,
then all in-coming G (energy) is emitted, therefore ε = 1
Kirchoff’s Identity
Emissivity ( ε )
• The rate at which radiant heat energy is emitted by a given surface.
• “The ratio of the thermal radiation from unit area of a surface to the radiation from unit area of a full emitter (black body) at the same temperature”
• It is a physical property… just like weight, color, shape, etc.
• All materials have an emissivity ranging from zero to one (100%).
Module 4Processes in
Radiation
Emissivity ( ε )
• The rate of radiation emanating from a surface. (the emissivity of an object’s surface is related to the ability of that surface to absorb heat rays.)

Grey Body Radiation
•A grey body is a non-ideal emitter or an imperfect radiator.•A grey body will:
•absorb some of the energy it will receive.•reflect some of the energy it will receive. •emit the energy it absorbs.
•A grey body is opaque: τ = 0

A + R + T = 1
Since there is no Transmissivity T = 0thenReflectivity + Absorptivity = 1 A + R = 1
(Absorptivity) + (Reflectivity) + τ (Transmissivity) = 1
Since there is Reflectivity R = > 0thenAbsorptivity must be: A = < 0thereforeEmissivity must be less than 1 ε = < 1
Emissive Power of a Grey Body
•Real surfaces emit less radiation than ideal “black body” surface.
•The ratio of actual emissive power [E] to the emissive power of a black body at the same temperature [Eb] is called the emissivity.
•It is defined byε = E/Eb

•Absorptivity•British Thermal Unit (Btu)•Conductance (C factor)•Conductivity (K factor)•Emissivity •Reflectivity•Resistance (R factor)•U Factor
Module 5Term Definitions
Absorptivity
• The fraction of thermal radiation incident on a surface which is absorbed.
Module 5Term Definitions
British Thermal Unit
• The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1lb. Water 1 degree Fahrenheit.
Module 5Term Definitions
Conductance (C Factor)
• The rate of heat flow in Watts per square meter Kelvin (W/m2K) of any material whether homogeneous or non-homogeneous.
Module 5Term Definitions
Conductivity (k Factor)
• Thermal conductivity, k, is the rate of conduction
heat transfer per unit area for a temperature gradient of 1˚ C/m ( or 1˚ F/ft).
•The units for k are W/(m ˚C) *or Btu/(h ft ˚F)+.
•Thermal conductivity (k) measures the rate of heat transfer through a material from face to face. Calculate for any material by multiplying the thickness in meters by the appropriate k value.
Emissivity
• Ratio of the radiation emitted by a surface to the radiation emitted by a black body at the same temperature.
Module 5Term Definitions
Reflectivity
• The fraction of thermal radiation incident on a surface which is reflected.
Resistance (R Factor)
• Resistance to heat flow is the reciprocal of C, k, or U:
• 1/C, 1/k, 1/U
•The smaller the C, k, or U factor fraction, and the larger the R factor, the better the insulation against heat transfer by conduction.
Module 5Term Definitions
U Factor
• The rate of heat flow or “overall coefficient of heat transmission” in Btus in one hour through one sq. ft. area of the entire depth of ceiling, roof, wall, or floor, including insulation if any, which will result from a 1˚ F temperature difference between the air inside and the air outside.
