2. What is heat transfer?
Heat transfer is the transfer
of energy from one
region to another as a
result of temperature
gradient(dT/dx).
Direction of heat transfer:
from higher temperature
to lower temperature.
3. modes of heat transfer
1. Conduction
2. Convection
3. radiation
4. Conduction
Conduction is the
transfer of heat from
one part of a
substance to another
part of substance or
any other substance
which is in contact
with it.
5. Conduction
Reason of heat transfer: increase in kinetic
energy of the free electrons of the matter.
Conduction in fluids is much easier due to
collision of molecules having high energy
to those having low energy.
7. convection
Reason for heat transfer: mixing of
fluid, so that heat exchange occur
from particles with higher
temperature to those with lower
temperature.
1. Free convection: mixing of fluid
occur naturally due to difference
in density of fluid that occur due
to having different temperatures.
2. Forced convection: mixing of fluid
occur using pumps or rotary
motion.
9. Radiation (electromagnetic
radiation)
Heat travelling by radiation is
radiant heat.
It require no medium for
propagation, travels at light
speed, possess particular
wavelength, mostly invisible.
Its nature is same as an
electromagnetic wave or
light.
