Chapter One Basics of Heat Transfer

1.1- Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer


The science of thermodynamics deals with the amount of heat transfer as a system undergoes a process
from one equilibrium state to another, and makes no reference to how long the process will take. Whereas
the science of heat transfer deals with the rate of heat transfer, which is the main quantity of interest in
the design and evaluation of heat transfer equipment.

1.1.1- Heat and Other Forms of Energy


Energy can exist in numerous forms such as thermal, mechanical, kinetic,
potential, electrical, magnetic, chemical, and nuclear, and their sum constitutes the
total energy E or (e on a unit mass basis). The forms of energy related to the
molecular structure of a system and the degree of the molecular activity are referred
to as the microscopic energy. The sum of all microscopic forms of energy is called
the internal energy of system, and is denoted U (or u on a unit mass basis).
Internal energy may be viewed as the sum of kinetic and potential energies of the
molecules. The portion of the internal energy of a system associated with the kinetic
energy of the molecules is called sensible energy or sensible heat, where the
internal energy associated with the phase change of a system is called latent
energy or latent heat. Fig.(1.1) The internal
energy (u) represents
In the analysis of a system that involve fluid flow as shown in Fig.(1.1), a the microscopic energy
combination of properties u and Pv is obtained to defined by a property called of a non-flowing fluid,
enthalpy h, where; h=u+Pv and the term Pv represents the flow energy of the fluid whereas enthalpy (h)
(also called the flow work). represents the
microscopic energy of
a flowing- fluid

1.1.2- Specific Heats of Gases, Liquids, and Solids


The ideal gas is defined as a gas that obeys the following relation;
P v = RT , or; P =  RT (1.1)
where P is the absolute pressure, v is the specific volume, T is the absolute temperature, ρ is the density,
and R is the gas constant.
Note1- The specific heat is defined as the energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a
substance by one degree. In general, this energy depends on how the process is executed. In
thermodynamics, we are interested in two kinds of specific heats; specific heat at constant volume Cv
and specific heat at constant pressure Cp. For ideal gases, these two specific heats are related to each
other by Cp= Cv + R, where the units of Cp, Cv, and R are [kJ/kg.K˚].
Note2- The change in internal energy and enthalpy can calculated for ideal gas by the following relations;
u = Cv T and h = C p T ( J / g ) (1.2.a)
or;
U = m Cv T and H = m C p T ( J ) (1.2.b)
where m is the mass of the system.
Note3- A substance whose specific volume (or density) does not change with temperature or pressure is
called an incompressible substance. The specific volumes of solids and liquids generally remain
constant during a process, and thus they can be approximated as incompressible substances, where the
constant-volume and constant-pressure specific heats are identical for incompressible substances.
Therefore, for solids and liquids we have; Cp≈Cv≈C, where C represents specific heat of the
incompressible substances. Therefore, the change in the internal energy of solids and liquids can be
expressed as;
U = m C T (J )  (1.3)

1.1.3- The First Law of Thermodynamics
The first law of thermodynamics, also known as the conservation of energy principle or (the
energy balance) which for any system undergoing any process may be expressed as follows: The net
change (increase or decrease) in the total energy of the system during a process is equal to the difference
between the total energy entering and the total energy leaving the system during that process, That is;
 Total energy   Total energy   Change in the total 
  −   =   (1.4)
 entering the system   leaving the system   energy of the system 

Noting that energy can be transferred to or from a system by heat, work, and
mass flow, and that the total energy of a simple compressible system consists
of internal, kinetic, and potential energies. So, the energy balance for any
system undergoing any process can be expressed as;
Ein − Eout = Esystem (J )  (1.5.a)

Note- The energy change of a system is zero (ΔEsystem = 0) if the state of the
system does not change during the process, that is, the process is steady. So,
as shown in Fig.(1.2), the energy balance in this case reduces to;
E in = E out (W )  (1.6)

1.1.3.a- Energy Balance for Closed Systems (Fixed Mass)


For a closed system consists of a fixed mass, then the total energy E will
consist of the internal energy U. This is especially the case for stationary
systems since they don’t involve any changes in their velocity or elevation
during a process. So, the energy balance relation for stationary closed system
will be as follow;
Ein − Eout = U = m Cv T (J ) (1.7.a)
when the system involves heat transfer only and no work interactions across

Q = m Cv T (J ) (1.7.b) of a closed system is equal to

where Q is the net amount of heat transfer to or from the system.

1.1.3.b- Energy Balance for Steady-Flow Systems


For a steady-flow system with one inlet and one exit, the rate of mass flow
into the control volume must be equal to the rate of mass flow out of it, thus,
(m in = m out = m ) . When the changes in kinetic and potential energies are
negligible, and there is no work interaction as shown in Fig.(1.4), the energy
balance for such a steady-flow system reduces to; Fig.(1.4) The net rate of energy

1.1.4- Surface Energy Balance
A surface contains no volume or mass, and thus no energy. Therefore, a
surface can be viewed as a fictitious system whose energy content remains
constant during a process (just like a steady-state or steady-flow system). Then
the energy balance for a surface can be expressed as;
E in = E out (W )  (1.9)
This relation is valid for both steady and transient conditions, and the surface
energy balance does not involve heat generation since a surface does not have a
volume. For example, the energy balance for the outer surface of the wall in
Fig.(1.5) can be expressed as; Q1 = Q2 + Q3

1.2- Heat Transfer Modes


The heat is defined as the form of energy that can be transferred from one system to another as a result
of temperature difference. The science that deals with the determination of the rates of such energy
transfers is the heat transfer. The transfer of energy as heat is always from the higher-temperature
medium to the lower-temperature one, and heat transfer stops when the two mediums reach the same
temperature. Heat can be transferred in three different modes: conduction, convection, and radiation. All
modes of heat transfer require the existence of a temperature difference, and all modes are from the high-
temperature medium to a lower-temperature one.
1.2.1- Conduction
Conduction is the transfer of energy from the more
energetic particles of a substance to the adjacent less energetic
ones as a result of interactions between the particles.
Conduction can take place in solids, liquids, or gases. In solids,
conduction is due to the combination of vibrations of the
molecules in a lattice and the energy transport by free
electrons, while in gases and liquids, it is due to the collisions
and diffusion of the molecules during their random motion, as
shown in Fig.(1.8).
The rate of heat conduction through a medium depends on the
geometry of the medium, its thickness, and the material of the
medium, as well as the temperature difference across the
medium.
Experiments have shown that the rate of heat transfer Q
through the wall will increase when the temperature difference
(ΔT) across the wall or the area (A) normal to the direction of
heat transfer increases, while it will decrease with the increase
of the wall thickness (L). Thus we conclude that the rate of
heat conduction through a plane layer is directly proportional
to the temperature difference across the layer ΔT and the heat
transfer area A, but is inversely proportional to the thickness
of the layer L. Thus;

Chapter One Basics of Heat Transfer
If we consider steady heat conduction through a large plane wall
of thickness Δx = L and area A, as shown in Fig.(1.9), where the
temperature difference across the wall is ΔT = T2 – T1, so, the rate
of heat conduction will be;
• T −T T
Q Cond. = k A 1 2 = −k A (W ) (1.10)
x x
where the constant of proportionality k is the thermal
conductivity of the material, which is a measure of the ability of
a material to conduct heat. In the limiting case of Δx→0, the
equation above reduces to the differential form as follow;
• dT
Q Cond. = −k A (W ) (1.11)

which is called Fourier’s law of heat conduction. Here dT/dx is
the temperature gradient, which is (the rate of change of T with
x) at location x.

1.2.1.a- Thermal Conductivity


The thermal conductivity of a material can be defined
as the rate of heat transfer through a unit thickness of the
material per unit area per unit temperature difference,
where the thermal conductivity of a material is a measure
of the ability of the material to conduct heat.

Note:- To measure thermal conductivity of a certain


material, we can follow the simple experimental setup
which is shown in Fig.(1.11), where a layer of material of
known thickness L and area A can be heated from one
side by an electric resistance heater of known output Q˙.
If the outer surfaces of the heater are well insulated, all
the heat generated by the resistance heater will be
transferred through the material whose conductivity is to
be determined. Then measuring the two surface
temperatures of the material when steady heat transfer is
reached and substituting them into Eq.(1.10) together
with other known quantities give the value of thermal
conductivity. Fig. (1.11) A simple experimental setup to
determine the thermal conductivity of a material

EXAMPLE 1.4-
A common way of measuring the thermal conductivity of a
material is to sandwich an electric thermo-foil heater between
two identical samples of the material, as shown in Fig.(1.12), a
circulating fluid such as tap water keeps the exposed ends of the
samples at constant temperature. The lateral surfaces of the
samples are well insulated to ensure that heat transfer through
the samples is one-dimensional. In a certain experiment,
cylindrical samples of diameter 5cm and length 10cm are used.
The two thermocouples in each sample are placed 3cm apart.
After initial transients, the electric heater is observed to draw
0.4A at 110V, and both differential thermometers read a
temperature difference of 15C°, Determine the thermal
conductivity of the sample.

SOLUTION
Assumptions 1 Steady operating conditions exist since the
temperature readings do not change with time. 2 Heat losses
through the lateral surfaces of the apparatus are negligible since
those surfaces are well insulated, and thus, the entire heat
generated by the heater is conducted through the samples. 3 Fig.(1.12) Schematic for Example-1.4
The apparatus possesses thermal symmetry.
Analysis The electrical power consumed by the resistance
heater and converted to heat is;
P=V×I=(110V)×(0.4A)=44W
The rate of heat flow through each sample is;
Q˙=P/2=22W
The area normal to the direction of heat flow is;
A=πD2/4=π(0.05m)2/4=0.00196 m2
Q˙=k A ΔT/L
k= Q˙ L/( A ΔT)=(22W)(0.03m)/[( 0.00196 m2)(15C°)

Note1- The thermal conductivities of materials vary over a wide range, as shown in Fig.(1.13). The
thermal conductivities of gases such as air vary by a factor of 104 from those of pure metals such as
copper. Note that pure crystals and metals have the highest thermal conductivities, and gases and
insulating materials the lowest.
Note2- The thermal conductivity of an alloy of two metals is usually much lower than that of either
metal, as shown in Table (1.1). For example, the thermal conductivity of steel containing just 1% of
chrome is 62 W/m·C°, while the thermal conductivities of iron and chromium are 83 and 95 W/m·C°,
respectively.
Note3- The thermal conductivities of materials vary with temperature, where the variation of thermal
conductivity over certain temperature ranges is negligible for some materials, but significant for others,
as shown in Fig.(1.14).

The product ρCp, which is frequently encountered in heat transfer some materials at room temperature
analysis, is called the heat capacity of a material and represents the
heat storage capability of a material. Another material property that
appears in the transient heat conduction analysis is the thermal
diffusivity, which represents how fast heat diffuses through a
material and is defined as;
Heat Conducted k
= = (m 2 / s ) (1.12)
Heat Stored  Cp
The thermal diffusivities of some common materials at 20 C° are
given in Table (1.2).
Note- The thermal conductivity k represents how well a material
conducts heat, and the heat capacity ρCp represents how much
energy a material stores per unit volume. Therefore, the thermal
diffusivity of a material can be viewed as the ratio of the heat
conducted through the material to the heat stored per unit volume.
1.2.2- Convection
Convection is the mode of energy transfer between a solid
surface and the adjacent liquid or gas that is in motion, and it
involves the combined effects of conduction and fluid motion. The
faster the fluid motion, the greater the convection heat transfer. In
the absence of any bulk fluid motion, heat transfer between a solid
surface and the adjacent fluid is by pure conduction. Consider the
cooling of a hot block by blowing cool air over its top surface as
shown in Fig. (1.15). Energy is first transferred to the air layer
adjacent to the block by conduction, this energy is then carried away Fig. (1.15) Heat transfer from a hot

Note1- Convection is called forced convection if the fluid is forced


to flow over the surface by external means such as a fan, pump, or
the wind. In contrast, convection is called natural or (free)
convection if the fluid motion is caused by buoyancy forces that are
induced by density differences due to the variation of temperature
in the fluid Fig.(1.16).

Note2- The rate of convection heat transfer is observed to be

Btu/h·ft2·F°, As is the surface area through which convection heat
transfer takes place, Ts is the surface temperature, and T∞ is the
temperature of the fluid sufficiently far from the surface.

Note3- The convection heat transfer coefficient h is not a property


of the fluid. It is an experimentally determined parameter whose
value depends on all the variables influencing convection such as
the surface geometry, the nature of fluid motion, the properties of
the fluid, and the bulk fluid velocity. Typical values of h are given
in Table (1.3).

1.2.3- Radiation
Radiation is the energy emitted by a body in the form of electromagnetic
waves as a result of the changes in the electronic configurations of the atoms
or molecules. Unlike conduction and convection, the transfer of energy by
radiation does not require the presence of a material medium to take place
as shown in Fig.(1.18). In fact, energy transfer by radiation is faster than it
by conduction or convection since it transfers at the speed of light. All
bodies at a temperature above absolute zero emit thermal radiation, where
the maximum rate of radiation that can be emitted from a surface at an
absolute temperature T1 in (K) to another surface at an absolute temperature
T2 is given by the Stefan–Boltzmann law as;

1.3- Units and Conversion Factors


Generally, all the engineering branches use the system of S.I. units mainly, but the need to deal with
English units will remain with us for many of next years. We therefore list some conversion factors from
English units to S.I. units as shown in Table(1.4) which provides multipliers for a selection of common
units. As an example of their use, we may convert a power of (1,000 Btu/hr) into (W) by using the given
multiplier;
1,000 Btu/hr × [0.29307 W/(Btu/hr)] ≈ 293.1 W

Note- The S.I. units may have prefixes placed front of them to indicate multiplication by various powers
of ten. For example, the prefix "k" denotes multiplication by 103. The complete set of S.I. prefixes is
given in Table(1.5).
