HEAT_TRANSFER.pdf ow a PRIVATE LIMITED Ideal for Scholars 4 Heat Transfer Heat may be transported from one point to another by any of three possible mechanisms : conduction, convection, and radiation. We study the rate of energy transfer between bodies due to temperature difference between them. Convection Convection is the process in which heatis carried from place to place by the bulk movement of a fluid. In liquid and gases, the atoms or molecules can move from point to point. The transfer of heat that ‘accompanies mass transport is called convection In forced convection, a fan or pump sets up fluid currents, For examples, % fr a fan blowsair, ora pump circulates water in a hot-water heating system inahouse. 4 Ince convection itoccurshecase he density of fd varies with ts U tere oes Anexampleofeonveoton currents ina pan of water being themoccment a id heatedonagasburner.

Conduction Arrod whose ends are in thermal contact with a hot re: ervoirat temperature T,, and a coldreservoir at temperature T,.. The sides of the rodare covered with insulation meterial, so the transport of heat is along the rod, not through the sides. The molecules atthe hot reservoirhave greater vibrational energy. This energy is trransferred by collisions to the atoms at the end face of the rod. These atoms in ‘turn transfer enery to their neighbors futher along the rod. Such transfer of heat through a substance is called conduction as shown in figure. j= Th Heat is conducted through an insulated bar whose ends are in thermal contact with, two reservoirs PRIVATE LIMITED Ideal for Scholars 2 Steady and Transient State : ‘Considera metal rod AB, with one end A inserted into a chamber containing a heater with other end B left free and exposed to the surrounding as shown in figure. The rod is thermally insulated sideways with some bad conductor of heat say cotton. Three thermometers are installed in the rod at three distinet sections numbered (1), (2) and (3).

In both cases, however, the Stefan-Bolfzmann law can be used to determine the amount of power emitted. Power is energy per Unit time or Q/t.
