its a ppt about heat transfer by conduction

1. CONDUCTION

2. CONDUCTION ???
WHAT IS
Conduction is the method of transfer of heat within a body
or from one body to the other due to the transfer of heat by
molecules vibrating at their mean positions.
The bodies through which the heat transfer must be in
contact with each other. There is no actual movement of
matter while transferring heat from one location to the
other.
eg.
on stove

4. HEAT
Energy that is transferred from one body to another as the
result of a difference in temperature.
RATE OF HEAT FLOW
The rate of heat flow is the amount of heat that is transferred per
unit of time in some material, usually measured in watt (joules per
second). Formula => Q/t Q = amount of
heat
t = time

5. A little bit
A measure of the ability of a material to transfer heat.
It is the heat energy transferred per unit time and per unit
surface area, divided by the temperature difference.
THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
Numerical value of the thermal conductivity indicates
how fast heat will flow.

6. AIM

plate method.

9. Basic Principal and Formula Used
The theory of heat transfer seeks to predict the energy
transfer that may take place between material bodies as a
result of temperature difference.
Consider one dimensional heat conduction. The rate at which.
heat is conducted through a slab of a particular material is
proportional to the area A of the slab and to the temperature
difference ΔT between its sides and inversely proportional to the
slab's thickness d.
The amount of heat Q that flows through the slab in the time t is
given by Q = ( kAΔT )

THERMAL RESISTANCE
The thermal resistance R of a layer of a material of
thickness d and of thermal conductivity k is given by
R = d
k
The greater the value of R, the greater the resistance
to the flow of heat.
