  2. Heat equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_equation

    The time rate of temperature change at x is proportional to the heat flowing into an infinitesimal volume element, where the constant of proportionality is dependent on a constant κ (,) = (,) Putting these equations together gives the general equation of heat flow:

  3. Newton's law of cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_cooling

    Newton did not originally state his law in the above form in 1701. Rather, using today's terms, Newton noted after some mathematical manipulation that the rate of temperature change of a body is proportional to the difference in temperatures between the body and its surroundings. This final simplest version of the law, given by Newton himself ...

  4. Q10 (temperature coefficient) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q10_(temperature_coefficient)

    The rate ratio at a temperature increase of 10 degrees (marked by points) is equal to the Q 10 coefficient. The Q 10 temperature coefficient is a measure of temperature sensitivity based on the chemical reactions. The Q 10 is calculated as: = / where; R is the rate T is the temperature in Celsius degrees or kelvin.

  5. Rate of heat flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_heat_flow

    The rate of heat flow is the amount of heat that is transferred per unit of time in some material, usually measured in watts (joules per second). Heat is the flow of thermal energy driven by thermal non-equilibrium, so the term 'heat flow' is a redundancy (i.e. a pleonasm ).

  6. Arrhenius equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhenius_equation

    In physical chemistry, the Arrhenius equation is a formula for the temperature dependence of reaction rates.The equation was proposed by Svante Arrhenius in 1889, based on the work of Dutch chemist Jacobus Henricus van 't Hoff who had noted in 1884 that the van 't Hoff equation for the temperature dependence of equilibrium constants suggests such a formula for the rates of both forward and ...

  7. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    In thermodynamics, the heat transfer coefficient or film coefficient, or film effectiveness, is the proportionality constant between the heat flux and the thermodynamic driving force for the flow of heat (i.e., the temperature difference, ΔT).

  8. Temperature coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_coefficient

    A temperature coefficient describes the relative change of a physical property that is associated with a given change in temperature. For a property R that changes when the temperature changes by dT , the temperature coefficient α is defined by the following equation:

  9. Van 't Hoff equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_'t_Hoff_equation

    A major use of the integrated equation is to estimate a new equilibrium constant at a new absolute temperature assuming a constant standard enthalpy change over the temperature range. To obtain the integrated equation, it is convenient to first rewrite the Van 't Hoff equation as [ 2 ]
