Heat Transfer Continued

• Only 1/3 of heat produced in an engine is actually used.• Where does the remainder go?• What are some “very good” and “good” heat

conductors?• How much energy do you radiate?• What is ambient air temperature?• Thermal Dynamics in relation to material’s

surface condition.• Thermal Dynamics in relation to color.
