P.16-19
Rate of Heat Transfer
The rate of heat energy transfer depends on many things
Surface area
The larger the surface area the faster the rate of heat transfer
Volume
The larger the volume the slower the rate of heat transfer
Type of material
Objects made from good conductors transfer heat away quicker
Some devices are designed to limit heat transfer
Humans and animals have ways of controlling heat transfer too
In the cold, the hairs on your skin stand up to trap a layer of air around your body
This prevents convection
When you're too warm, your body diverts blood to flow nearer to the surface of your skin
This causes more radiation
Energy Transfer
There are nine types of energy:
Electrical Energy
Light Energy
Sound Energy
Kinetic Energy
Nuclear Energy
Thermal Energy
Gravitational Potential Energy
Elastic Potential Energy
Chemical Energy
These are forms of stored energy
Energy can be transferred usefully from one form to another stored or dissipated- but it can never be created or destroyed
Energy is only useful when it can be converted from on form to another
Specific Heat Capacity
Specific Heat Capacity tells you how much energy materials can store
It takes more heat energy to increase the temperature of some materials than others
E = m x c x ϑ
Energy transferred = Mass x specific heat capacity x temperature change
J = kg x J/kg°C x °C
Heaters are designed to have high heat capacities to store lots of energy
Energy efficiency in the home
Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness are not the same thing
The most effective methods of insulation give you the biggest annual saving
The money you've saved on heating bills will equal the initial cost
This is the payback time
The most cost-effectiveness methods tend to be the cheapest
They have a short payback time
Cavity wall insulation, Loft insulation, Draught-Proofing, Hot water tank jacket, and Thick curtains
U-Values show how fast heat can transfer through a material
