Thermodynamics notes

Thermodynamic Concepts. Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with the relationships between heat and other forms of energy. • Heat is energy that flows from one object to another due to a difference in temperature. Heat is measured in calories or joules. • Conversion factor between the two are 1 kcal = 4186 J • Heat is transferred from one body to another or from a body and the environment. • Three methods of heat transfer are: • Conduction • Convection ...
