Study Notes
Temperature Conversions
- Kelvin to Fahrenheit: formula and conversion method
- Kelvin to Celsius: not applicable, as Kelvin is an absolute temperature scale
- Celsius to Fahrenheit: formula and conversion method
- Fahrenheit to Celsius: formula and conversion method
Heat Transfer Modes
- Conduction: transfer of heat energy through direct contact between particles
- Convection: transfer of heat energy through the movement of fluids
- Radiation: transfer of heat energy through electromagnetic waves
- Seabreeze: wind that blows from sea to land, cooling the air
- Land breeze: wind that blows from land to sea, warming the air
Thermal Concepts
- Thermo flask: vacuum-insulated container that minimizes heat transfer
- Construction: importance of insulation and thermal bridges
- Working: thermal principles in the design of buildings and devices
- Thermal expansion: change in size or volume of a substance in response to temperature changes
