De fine heat and derive an expression for
heat supplied a body (@-m st)
Answers
Answer:
Heat transfer is a process is known as the exchange of heat from a high-temperature body to a low-temperature body. As we know heat is a kinetic energy parameter, included by the particles in the given system. As a system temperature increases the kinetic energy of the particle in the system also increases. The energy of the particle from the one system to other system is transferred when these systems are brought into contact with one another.
The following equation relates to the heat transferred from one system to another
Q=c×m×ΔT
Where
Q = Heat supplied to the system
m = mass of the system
c = Specific heat capacity of the system and
ΔT = Change in temperature of the system.
The transfer of heat occurs through three different processes, which are mentioned below.
Conduction
Convection
Radiation.
Conduction:
Heat transferred by the process of conduction can be expressed by the following equation,
Q=kA(Hot−Cold)td
Q = Heat transferred
K = Thermal conductivity
THOT = Hot temperature
TCOLD = Cold Temperature
t = Time
A = Area of the surface
d = Thickness of the material
Convection:
Heat transferred by the process of convection can be expressed by the following equation,
Q=Hc(THOT−TCOLD)
Here, Hc is the heat transfer coefficient.
Radiation:
The Heat transferred by the process of radiation can be given by the following expression,
Q=σ(THot4−TCold4)A
Here σ is known as Stefan Boltzmann Constant.
Derivation:
From the definition of specific heat capacity, we can say that, it is the total amount of heat that is to be supplied to a unit mass of the system, so as to increase its temperature by 1 degree Celsius.
Now, the total heat to be supplied to the system can be given as,
Q=c×m×ΔT
Real Life Example: Let us consider a pitcher of water that is to be heated till its temperature rises from the room temperature to 100 degree Celsius. In this case, as we know the mass of the water and its specific heat capacity at the given conditions, we can use the above mentioned formula to calculate the amount of heat to be supplied.
Example 1
Let us consider two water columns at different temperatures, one being at 40oC and the other being at 20oC. As both the water columns are separated by a glass wall of area 1m by 2m and a thickness of 0.003m. Calculate the amount of heat transfer. (Thermal Conductivity of glass is 1.4 W/mK)
Solution:
According to question,
Thermal Conductivity of glass = 1.4 W/mK.
Also, the temperature of the first column is Th=400 C and
The temperature of the second column is Tc=200 C.
Area of the wall separating both the columns = 1m × 2m = 2 m2
Using the heat transfer equation for conduction, we can write,
Q=kA(Hot−Cold)d
Q=1.4×2×200.003=18667W
Example 2
A system weighing 5 Kgs is heated from its initial temperature of 30ᵒC to its final temperature of 60ᵒC. Calculated the total heat gained by the system. (Specific heat of the system = 0.45 kJ/Kg K)
Solution:
According to question,
The Initial temperature of the system, Ti = 30ᵒC
The Final temperature of the system, Ti = 60ᵒC
Mass of the system, m = 5 kg
The total heat gained by the system can be calculated by using the formula for heat transfer as mentioned above,
Q=c×m×ΔT
Q=5×0.45×30
Q=67.5 J
