Activity Sheet No. 6: Infer the Conditions Necessary for Heat

Transfer to Occur
START UP
At the end of this worksheet, the learners will be able to:
1. Infer the conditions necessary for heat transfer to occur.

2. Describe the effect of temperature difference in the rate of heat transfer
3. Apply and appreciate importance of heat transfer in our daily life
Many times, in our life we have experienced heat; you have observed its effects.
But have you ever wondered what heat really is?
In your earlier grades, you learned that heat moves from the source to other
objects or places. Example is the kettle with water placed on top of a burning stove. The
water gets hot because heat from the burning stove is transferred to it.
This activity aims to reinforce your understanding of heat as an energy in transit

from one object to another. You will determine the conditions necessary for heat to
transfer and the direction by which the energy transfers by examining the changes in the
temperature of the objects involved. You will learn the different methods of heat transfer
and determine some factors that affect these methods.

Key Concepts
✔ Heat is an energy in transit
✔ Heat transfer is a discipline of thermal engineering that concerns the generation,
use, conversion and exchange of thermal energy (heat) between physical systems.
✔ Heat transfer is classified into various mechanisms, such as thermal conduction,
thermal convection, thermal radiation and transfer of energy by phase
changes.
✔ Heat transfer occurs between states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) whenever a
temperature difference exists. Heat transfer occurs only in the direction of
decreasing temperature, meaning from a hot object to a cold object or from higher
temperature to a lower temperature.
✔ Objects with high temperature give off heat while objects with low
temperature receive heat.

✔ Temperature difference between two objects is the driving force in heat exchange
principle. The greater the difference in temperature the greater the rate of
heat transfer.
✔ Thermal Energy and not heat is transferred during heat transfer.
✔ Thermal Energy-the energy that comes from the temperature of a heated
substance.
Modes of Heat Transfer
● Conduction- Conduction takes place between objects that are in contact with
each other. The energy is transferred through particles that are close or in direct
contact with each other.
● The particles at a higher temperature are more energetic and thus vibrate
faster than the particles at a lower temperature. When these particles
collide, some of the energy from the more energetic particles are transferred
to the less energetic particles, in the form of heat.
● Heat transfer occurs not only in solids but also in fluids, but not all conduct
heat equally. Metals are mostly good conductors of heat since they
absorbed heat faster. Solid materials which do not absorbed heat easily
are good insulators such as rubber and cloth
● Example: heating a pan on a stove- the heat from the burner transfers
directly to the surface of the pan.

● Convection- movement of liquid or gases from a colder region to a warmer

region, producing a current.
Example:1. Boiling water in a pot

● Radiation- Radiation is heat transfer in the form of electromagnetic waves that

carry energy from one object to another. There is no physical medium needed for
radiation to occur; it will even work in a vacuum. The most common example of
radiation is energy from the sun.
● The hotter an object is, the more infrared radiation it emits.

● Heat transfer by radiation takes place between objects of different
temperatures when the hotter object emits more energy than it absorbs
from the cooler object and the cooler object receives more energy than it
emits.
● Objects with dark surfaces absorbed more heat than objects with bright
surfaces
Example: getting warm from the furnace
