Adiabatic Processes
An adiabatic process is process in which there is no thermal energy transfer to or from a system (Q = 0)
A reversible adiabatic process involves a “worked” expansion in which we can return all of the energy transferred.
In this case
PV = const. All real processes are not.

Heat and Latent Heat
Latent heat of transformation L is the energy required for 1 kg of substance to undergo a phase change. (J / kg)
Q = ±ML Specific heat c of a substance is the energy required to raise the
temperature of 1 kg by 1 K. (Units: J / K kg )
Q = M c ΔT
Molar specific heat C of a gas at constant volume is the energy required to raise the temperature of 1 mol by 1 K.
Q = n CV ΔT
If a phase transition involved then the heat transferred is
Q = ±ML+M c ΔT
Physics 207: Lecture 24, Pg 9
Q : Latent heat and specific heat
The molar specific heat of gasses depends on the process path
CV= molar specific heat at constant volume
Cp= molar specific heat at constant pressure
Cp= CV+R (R is the universal gas constant)

Mechanical equivalent of heat
Heating liquid water: Q = amount of heat that must be supplied to raise the temperature by an amount T .
[Q] = Joules or calories.
calorie: energy to raise 1 g of water from 14.5 to 15.5 °C
(James Prescott Joule found the mechanical equivalent of heat.)
1 Cal = 4.186 J
1 kcal = 1 Cal = 4186 J
Sign convention:
+Q : heat gained- Q : heat lost

Exercise
The specific heat (Q = M c ΔT) of aluminum is about twice that of iron. Consider two blocks of equal mass, one made of aluminum and the other one made of iron, initially in thermal equilibrium.
Heat is added to each block at the same constant rate until it reaches a temperature of 500 K. Which of the following statements is true?
(a) The iron takes less time than the aluminum to reach 500 K
(b) The aluminum takes less time than the iron to reach 500 K
(c) The two blocks take the same amount of time to reach 500 K

Most people were at least once burned by hot water or steam. Assume that water and steam, initially at 100°C, are cooled down
to skin temperature, 37°C, when they come in contact with your skin. Assume that the steam condenses extremely fast, and that the specific heat c = 4190 J/ kg K is constant for both liquid water and steam.
Under these conditions, which of the following statements is true?
(a) Steam burns the skin worse than hot water because the thermal conductivity of steam is much higher than that of liquid water.
(b) Steam burns the skin worse than hot water because the latent heat of vaporization is released as well.
(c) Hot water burns the skin worse than steam because the thermal conductivity of hot water is much higher than that of steam.
(d) Hot water and steam both burn skin about equally badly.

Energy transfer mechanisms Thermal conduction (or conduction) Convection Thermal Radiation
For a material of cross-section area A and length L, spanning a temperature difference ΔT = TH – TC, the rate
of heat transfer is
where k is the thermal conductivity, which characterizes whether the material is a good conductor of heat or a poor conductor.
Q / t = k A T / x
Physics 207: Lecture 24, Pg 16
Energy transfer mechanisms
Thermal conduction (or conduction): Energy transferred by direct contact. e.g.: energy enters the water through
the bottom of the pan by thermal conduction.
Important: home insulation, etc.
Rate of energy transfer ( J / s or W ) Through a slab of area A and
thickness x, with opposite faces at different temperatures, Tc and Th
Q / t = k A (Th - Tc ) / x

Energy transfer mechanisms Convection:
Energy is transferred by flow of substance
1. Heating a room (air convection)
2. Warming of North Altantic by warm waters from the equatorial regions
Natural convection: from differences in density Forced convection: from pump of fan
Radiation: Energy is transferred by photons
e.g.: infrared lamps Stefan’s Law
= 5.710-8 W/m2 K4 , T is in Kelvin, and A is the surface area e is a constant called the emissivity
P = A e T4 (power radiated)
Physics 207: Lecture 24, Pg 22
Minimizing Energy Transfer
The Thermos bottle, also called a Dewar flask is designed to minimize energy transfer by conduction, convection, and radiation. The standard flask is a double-walled Pyrex glass with silvered walls and the space between the walls is evacuated.

Anti-global warming or the nuclear winter scenario
Assume P/A = I = 1340 W/m2 from the sun is incident on a thick dust cloud above the Earth and this energy is absorbed, equilibrated and then reradiated towards space where the Earth’s surface is in thermal equilibrium with cloud. Let e (the emissivity) be unity for all wavelengths of light.
What is the Earth’s temperature?P = A T4= (4 r2) T4 = I r2 T = [I / (4 x )]¼ = 5.710-8 W/m2 K4 T = 277 K (A little on the chilly side.)

Ch. 18, Macro-micro connectionMolecular Speeds and Collisions
• A real gas consists of a vast number of molecules, each moving randomly and undergoing millions of collisions every second.
• Despite the apparent chaos, averages, such as the average number of molecules in the speed range 600 to 700 m/s, have precise, predictable values. • The “micro/macro” connection is built on the idea that the macroscopic properties of a system, such as temperature or pressure, are related to the average behavior of the atoms and molecules.
Physics 207: Lecture 24, Pg 27
Mean Free Path
If a molecule has Ncoll collisions as it travels distance L, the average distance between collisions, which is called the mean free path λ (lowercase Greek lambda), is
Physics 207: Lecture 24, Pg 28
Macro-micro connection Assumptions for ideal gas:
# of molecules N is large They obey Newton’s laws Short-range interactions with
elastic collisions Elastic collisions with walls
(an impulse…..pressure)
What we call temperature T is a direct measure of the average translational kinetic energy
What we call pressure p is a direct measure of the number density of molecules, and how fast they are moving (vrms)
