in the AtmosphereHeat Transfer
• Heat (energy) always moves from a warmer substance to a cooler substance.

What is Heat Transfer?
What is Heat Transfer?• Heat transfer is the movement of
heat energy from one substance to another.
• Heat will continue to move until both substances are the same temperature.

What is Heat Transfer?
• The greater the difference in temperature between the substances, the faster the heat will transfer.
What is Heat Transfer?
• There are three types of heat transfer:– Conduction– Convection– Radiation
What is Heat Transfer?
Examples• You touch a black
car in the summer and the heat from the car transfers into your hand.
• A breeze makes you feel cooler because the wind transfers heat away from your body.
• You feel the cold of a winter day because the cold air transfers into you.
• Your Coke in a cooler gets cold because the cold from the ice moves into the Coke.
Anti-Examples
Conduction• Heat transfer by conduction is the
transfer of heat through direct contact.
Conduction• Molecules transfer energy to the
molecules next to them.
Conduction• The molecules
do not have to be the same substance.

The metal conducts heat from the cup of warm water to the cup of cool water.
Your Coke becomes cold because the heat from the soda transfers into the ice, not the other way around.

Example 2
No matter what it feels like, cold does not
transfer into your body.

Radiation• Heat transfer by radiation is the transfer
of heat through electromagnetic waves.

Radiation• There is no direct contact between the
substances.

Heat from the sun radiates throughempty space to earth.

Example 2
The heat from the campfire transfersinto your marshmallow, giving you a yummy, gooey treat!(Direct contact between the fire and your marshmallow will ruin it!)
Convection• Heat transfer by convection is the
transfer of heat through the fluid (liquids and gases) movement of currents.
Convection• Warm fluids rise, cool down, sink,
and then are warmed again.

The radiator warms the room by warming theair around it. Then the warm air transfers heat
to the rest of the room through convection.

As air above the road warms up, it rises and is replaced bycooler air, forming a convection current.

This picture illustrates all three type of heat transfer.Can you identify them all?
