heat

Heat is thermal energy in transit, transferring from higher to lower temperature objects. It can be transferred through conduction, convection, and radiation, with conduction occurring through particle contact, convection through fluid movement, and radiation through electromagnetic waves. Conductivity measures a material's ability to conduct heat, with metals being the best conductors.

What is your idea about
heat based on what
they learned in the
lower grades or based
on their everyday
experiences with heat?
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN HEAT AND
THERMAL ENERGY?
 Heat
is the thermal
energy that is in the
process of being
transferred, say
between objects due to
the difference in their
temperature.
 Inother words,
heat is energy
“in transit”. It
transfers from
an object of
higher
temperature to
 Heat from the source
to other objects or
places.
 Example
 The
kettle with
water placed on top
of burning stove
The water gets hot because heat from the burning stove is transferred to it.
 Heat transfer is
related to change
in temperature.
 Temperature refers
to the relative
hotness or coldness
of an object.
METHODS
OF HEAT
TRANSFER
HEAT TRANSFER BY
CONDUCTION
 Conduction takes place
when the particles
between objects or places
that are in contact vibrate
and collide at different
speeds due to the
difference in their
temperature.
HEAT TRANSFER BY
CONDUCTION
 The
particles at a higher
temperature are more
energetic and thus
vibrate faster than the
particles at the lower
temperature.
 Heat transfer occurs not
only in solids but also in
fluids, but not all conduct
heat equally. Some
materials conduct heat
easily; other materials
conduct heat poorly.
Objects that conduct heat
poorly, like wood are
 Onebasis for
determining the use of
materials is by their
ability to conduct heat,
known as their
conductivity. Higher
conductivity means that
the material is a good
conductor of heat. Metals
EXAMPLE
 Thinkof a metal spoon
put in a bowl of a hot
champorado.

HEAT TRANSFER BY
CONVECTION
 Heat transfer by conduction
can take place in solids and
in fluids. Convection, on the
other hand, takes place only
in fluids because it involves
the movement of particles
themselves from one place
to another.
HEAT TRANSFER BY
CONVECTION
 CONVECTION – is a
method by which energy
is transferred through the
liquid by the movement of
its particles.
 All
objects emit and
absorb radiation, known
as thermal or infrared
radiation. The amount of
radiation emitted
depends on the
temperature of the
emitting object. The
hotter an object is, the
HEAT TRANSFER BY
RADIATION
 Radiation refers to the
emission of electromagnetic
waves which carry energy
away from the surface of the
emitting body or object. In
this process, no particles are
involved, unlike in the
processes of conduction and
convection. This is why
HEAT TRANSFER BY
RADIATION
 The
transfer of energy
from the sun across
nearly empty space is
made possible by
radiation. Radiation
takes place even in the
absence of matter.
SUMMARY
  Heat is a thermal energy that is in
transit.
  Heat transfer takes place between
objects of different temperature.
  When the object becomes warmer, it
means that it gained energy. When it
becomes cooler, it means that it lost
energy.
 Heat energy always transfers from
object of higher temperature to object
of lower temperature.
  Heat can be transferred in three ways:
SUMMARY
  Conduction takes place due to
the vibrating and colliding
particles of objects that are in
contact. It can take place in
solids, liquids, and gases but it
takes place best in solids.
  Conductivity refers to the
ability of the material to
conduct heat. The higher the
conductivity of the object, the
SUMMARY
  Metals are mostly good
conductors of heat.
  Convection takes place in
fluids because their particles
can move around. In
convection, the heat is
transferred by the particles
themselves.
  During convection, warmer
liquid or gas expands and goes
SUMMARY
  Heat transfer by radiation
does not need particles or a
medium to take place.
  Different surfaces emit or
absorb heat differently. Dull
and black surfaces absorb
heat better than bright and
shiny surfaces.
