(1) Heat behaves in a predictable way. For example, when ice is placed in hot water, it melts. Heat – and other forms of energy – obeys "laws" that restrict its behaviour, and the study of heat as a form of energy is called thermodynamics. The “Laws of thermodynamics” were worked out during the mid-19th century. The "law of conservation of energy" says that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can only change from one form to another. This is the first law of thermodynamics. (2) Any form of energy can be converted entirely into heat. But when heat energy is changed into other forms, it can never do so entirely. Some of it always remains as heat, and temperatures always even out. This is the second law of thermodynamics. The behaviour of heat energy can be explained by the fact that it is the motion of particles of matter – atoms and molecules. The temperature of matter is the average energy of all its particles. Conduction, the transfer of heat between matter in contact, happens because the particles of a hot object transfer some of their energy to those of a cooler object. (3) No machine can ever be 100 per cent efficient because a certain amount of energy will always be lost as heat. This means that there can be no such thing as a perpetual motion machine, which would work forever and never run out of energy, but many people still try to make one. (4) This attempt was built in 1747. Iron balls fell on to a large wheel and turned the wheel around to operate the diagonal screw. The screw would then lift the balls up to repeat the process perpetually. But in practice the machine did not work because it would eventually slow down to a halt as its energy was lost as heat. (5) A variation of the vacuum flask invented by the Scottish physicist James Dewar was mass-produced in the early 20th century and sold under the trade name Thermos. The flask contains a partial vacuum between its walls that greatly reduces conduction, the transfer of heat energy between matter in contact. Heat energy can become radiation and can pass between particles, even in a vacuum, but the vacuum flask has silvered walls that reflect radiated heat. |
