UNIT-I Modes of Heat Transfer Heat Transfer by Conduction Fourier's Law of Heat Conduction dt Q =- Ka dx dt The temperature gradient is always negative along positive x direction and, dx therefore, the value as Q becomes + ve. Essential Features of Fourier’s law: 1. It is applicable to all matter (may be solid, liquid or gas). 2. It is a vector expression indicating that heat flow rate is in the direction of decreasing temperature and is normal to an isotherm. 3. It is based on experimental evidence and cannot be derived from first principle. Thermal Conductivity of Materials Sl. NO.

The following are the effects of various parameters on the thermal conductivity of solids. 1. Chemical composition: Pure metals have very high thermal conductivity. Impurities or alloying elements reduce the thermal conductivity considerably [Thermal conductivity of pure copper is 385 W/mºC, and that for pure nickel is 93 W/mºC. But monel metal (an alloy of 30% Ni and 70% Cu) has k of 24 W/mºC. Again for copper containing traces of Arsenic the value of k is reduced to 142 W/mºC]. 2. Mechanical forming: Forging, drawing and bending or heat treatment of metals causes considerable variation in thermal conductivity. For example, the thermal conductivity of hardened steel is lower than that of annealed state. 3. Temperature rise: The value of k for most metals decreases with temperature rise since at elevated temperatures the thermal vibrations of the lattice become higher that retard the motion of free electrons. 4. Non-metallic solids: Non-metallic solids have k much lower than that for metals. For many of the building materials (concrete, stone, brick, glass wool, cork etc.) the thermal conductivity may vary from sample to sample due Fire brick to variations in structure, composition, density and porosity. 5. Presence of air: The thermal conductivity is reduced due to the presence of air filled pores or cavities. 6. Dampness: Thermal conductivity of a damp material is considerably higher than that of dry material. 7. Density: Thermal conductivity of insulating powder, asbestos etc. increases with density Growth. Thermal conductivity of snow is also proportional to its density. Thermal Conductivity of Liquids V s k = 3 2 R Where = Boltzmann constant per molecule A v (Don’t confused with Stefen Boltzmann Constant) Vs = Sonic velocity of molecule = Distance between two adjacent molecule.

One Dimensional Steady State Conduction General Heat Conduction Equation in Cartesian Coordinates Recognize that heat transfer involves an energy transfer across a system boundary. A logical place to begin studying such process is from Conservation of Energy (1st Law of – Thermodynamics) for a closed system: dE i i Q W out = in − dt system The sign convention on work is such that negative work out is positive work in: i i dE = Q in + W out dt system The work in term could describe an electric current flow across the system boundary and through a resistance inside the system. Alternatively it could describe a shaft turning across the system boundary and overcoming friction within the system.
