1. Introduction to heat transfer
What is heat?
o Particles in a system are in continuous motion (vibration, rotation, translation)
Solid Liquid Gas
o Particle motion attributes to K.E. for each particle referred to as heat or thermal energy
o Sum of K.Es. of all the particles in a body is referred to as heat
o Faster the particles in a body move hotter the body gets
o Heat is denoted by Q
o Measured in Joules (J) in MKS system
1. Introduction to heat transfer
Temperature
o Every particle in a system moves with its own energy
o Particles interact (collide) with each other and change energies
o Averaging thermal energies of particles gives temperature of the system
o Temperature is measure of the average kinetic energy of a system

1. Introduction to heat transfer
Transfer of heat
o Temperature gradient within a system or between systems drives the transfer of heat
o Heat is always transferred from a point of higher T to that of the lower
o Heat transfer can be defined as heat or thermal energy in transit
Thermodynamics & heat transfer
o Thermodynamics deals with the end or final state
o Heat transfer deals with the rate of energy transport

1. Introduction to heat transfer
Energy conservation o Total energy of the system is conserved
o Energy can be transferred to or from a system by heat, work, mass flow
Ein – Eout = ΔE
Ėin – Ėout = dE/dt
At steady state Ėin = Ėout

2. Application & importance of HT
In general o Maintaining body temperature
o In life support (from sun to earth)
o Cooking (electric & gas ranges)
o Cooling & keeping warm
o Relaxation & relieving muscle pain
o Weather formations
2. Application & importance of HT
In engineering o Steam engines, turbines, boilers
o Nuclear & solar energy
o power generation
o Chemical process industry
o Electronic device cooling
o Insulation designs on pipes & walls use HT analysis
2. Application & importance of HT
Engineering designo Boilers & heat exchangers
o Electric and hybrid vehicle battery cooling
2. Application & importance of HT
Example 1: Water heating in electric pot1.2 kg of liquid water initially at 15°C is to beheated to 95°C in a teapot equipped with a1200-W electric heating element inside (Fig. 1–18).
The teapot is 0.5 kg and has an average specificheat of 0.7 kJ/kg · °C. Taking the specific heat ofwater to be 4.18 kJ/kg · °C and disregarding anyheat loss from the teapot, determine how longit will take for the water to be heated.
3. Modes of heat transfer
Conduction:
HT due to particle inreaction alone. No bulk movement
Convection:
HT due to actual movement of bulk of fluid
Radiation:
HT by electromegnatic waves (photons). Require no medium
3. Modes of heat transfer
Conduction
Fourier‘s law of heat conduction:
The rate of heat conduction through a plane layer is proportional to the temperature difference across the layer and the heat transfer area, but is inversely proportional to the thickness of the layer.
That is,
Heat conduction rate α (A·ΔT)/(Δx)
Where, ΔT = (T2 ̶ T1)
3. Modes of heat transfer
Thermal conductivity (k):Rate of heat transfer through a unit thickness of material per unit area per unit degree rise in temperature.
o k is a measure of material‘s ability to conduct heat
e.g. for water, k = 0.608 (W/m·°C) at room T
and for iron, k = 80.2 (W/m·°C) at room T
o Higher value of k indicative of good condutor
o Lower value of k is indicative of poor conductor or good onsulator
3. Modes of heat transfer
Thermal conductivity (k):

3. Modes of heat transfer
Thermal diffusivity (α):Thermal diffusivity of a material can be viewed as the ratio of theheat conducted through the material to the heat stored per unitvolume.
α = (Heat conducted)/(Heat stored)
α = k/(ρ CP)
Larger value of thermal diffusivity indicates faster propogation of heat through the material

Convection
Rate of convective heat transfer between a solid surface and adjacent fluid is given by Newton’s law of cooling.
Heat convection rate = hA (Ts ̶ Tf)
