    Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer
     Heat: The form of energy that can be transferred from one
    system to another as a result of temperature difference.
     OR
    • Heat transfer (or heat) is thermal energy in transit due to
    a spatial temperature difference.
     Thermodynamics is concerned with the amount of heat(
    energy) transfer as a system undergoes a process from
    one equilibrium state to another.
     Heat Transfer deals with the determination of the rates of
    such energy transfers as well as variation of temperature.
     The transfer of energy as heat is always from the higher
    temperature medium to the lower temperature one.
     Heat transfer stops when the two mediums reach the
    same temperature.
    Modes of Heat Transfer


     The three physical mechanisms (modes) of heat
    transfer are:
    1. Conduction - heat flow by direct contact.

    2. Convection - heat transfer that will occur


    between a surface and a moving fluid when
    they are at different temperatures.
    3. Thermal radiation – transfer of heat by
    electromagnetic waves.
     In practical cases, a combination of one or more of
    the above modes are present

    transferred in the direction of decreasing temperature.
     Under the steady-state conditions, where the

    temperature distribution is linear, the temperature
    gradient may be expressed as:

     The heat rate by conduction, qx (W), through a plane


    wall of area A is then the product of the flux and the
    area, . qx = qx” *A.
    Thermal Conductivity
    • Thermal conductivity: The
    rate of heat transfer through a
    unit thickness of the material
    per unit area per unit
    temperature difference. 
    • The thermal conductivity of a
    material is a measure of the
    ability of the material to
    conduct heat.
    • A high value for thermal
    conductivity indicates
    that the material is a
    good heat conductor,
    and a low value indicates
    that the material is a
    poor heat conductor or
    insulator.

    • energy is also transferred by the bulk,

    or macroscopic, motion of the fluid
    (Advection)
    • We are especially interested in convection heat transfer, which
    occurs between a fluid in motion and a bounding surface when
    the two are at different temperatures.

    development in
    convection heat
    transfer.
    • Convection heat transfer may be classified according to the
    nature of the flow.
     Forced convection - when the flow is caused by

    external means, such as by a fan, a pump, or
    atmospheric winds.
     Free (or natural) convection - the flow is induced by
    buoyancy forces, which are due to density differences
    caused by temperature variations in the fluid.
    • In convection heat transfer the energy that is being transferred
    is the sensible, or internal thermal, energy of the fluid.
    • However, for some convection processes, there is, in addition,
    latent heat exchange.
    • This latent heat exchange is generally associated with a phase
    change between the liquid and vapor states of the fluid.
    • Two special cases of interest in this text are boiling and
    condensation.

    Newton’s law of cooling as • Note that at the surface, the

    fluid is higher than

    3. Radiation
    • Thermal radiation is energy emitted by matter that is at a
    nonzero temperature.

    • The energy of the radiation field is transported by
    electromagnetic waves (or alternatively, photons).
    • While the transfer of energy by conduction or convection
    requires the presence of a material medium, radiation does not.
    • In fact, radiation transfer occurs most efficiently in a vacuum.
    • All bodies at a temperature above absolute zero emit thermal
    radiation.
    • Radiation is a volumetric phenomenon, and all solids, liquids,
    and gases emit, absorb, or transmit radiation to varying
    degrees.
    • However, radiation is usually considered to be a surface
    phenomenon for solids that are opaque to thermal radiation
    such as metals, wood, and rocks.
    • The rate at which energy is released per unit area (W/m2) is
    termed the surface emissive power, E.
    • There is an upper limit to the emissive power, which is


    prescribed by the Stefan–Boltzmann law.

    where Ts is the absolute temperature (K) of the surface and is


    the Stefan– Boltzmann constant.
    • Such a surface is called an ideal radiator or blackbody.
    • The heat flux emitted by a real surface is less than that of a
    blackbody at the same temperature and is given by

    where is a radiative property of the surface termed the emissivity.


    • With values in the range 0 ≤ ε ≤ 1, this property provides a
    measure of how efficiently a surface emits energy relative to a
    blackbody.
    • Radiation may also be incident on a surface from its
    surroundings.
    • The rate at which all radiation is incident on a unit area of the
    surface as the irradiation G.

    • A portion, or all, of the irradiation may be absorbed by the
    surface, thereby increasing the thermal energy of the material.
    • The rate at which radiant energy is absorbed per unit surface
    area may be evaluated from knowledge of a surface radiative
    property termed then absorptivity α.

    where 0 ≤ α ≤ 1.
    • If and the surface is opaque, portions of the irradiation are
    reflected If the surface is semitransparent, portions of the
    irradiation may also be transmitted.
    Radiation exchange: (a) at a surface and (b) between a
    surface and large surroundings.


    • If the surface is assumed to be one for which α = ε (a gray
    surface), the net rate of radiation heat transfer from the surface,
    expressed per unit area of the surface, is


    • This expression provides the difference between thermal energy
    that is released due to radiation emission and that gained due to
    radiation absorption.
    • For many applications, it is convenient to express the net
    radiation heat exchange in the form

    • The radiation heat transfer coefficient hr is


    The Thermal Resistance Concept


    • Thermal resistance is a heat property and a
    measurement of a temperature difference by which
    an object or material resists a heat flow.

    where ∆T is a relevant temperature


    difference and A is the area normal to
    the direction of heat transfer. The
    quantity Rt is called a thermal
    resistance and takes different forms
    for the three different modes of heat
    transfer
