Sankey Diagrams Worksheet

The document describes how to draw Sankey diagrams to represent energy transfers for different systems. A Sankey diagram for an inefficient light bulb would show input energy of 10 joules separating into 4 joules of light output, 6 joules of heat waste. Another Sankey diagram shows a candle with input of 200 joules separating into 140 joules of heat output and 60 joules of sound waste.

Sankey Diagrams

Draw a sankey diagram to show the energy change for:

1) An inefficient light bulb. The input energy is 10 joules. The


useful output energy is light 4 joules and the wasted energy is
heat 6 joules.

2) A candle. The input energy is 200 joules. The useful output


energy is heat 140 joules and wasted energy is sound 60 joules.
Sankey Diagrams
Complete and label a sankey diagram to show the energy change for:

1) An energy efficient light bulb. The input energy is 10 joules.


The useful output energy is light 8 joules. The wasted energy is
heat 2 joules.

2) An electric kettle. The input energy is 10 joules. The useful


output energy is heat 9 joules. Wasted energy is sound 1 joules.
