  2. Thermal equation of state of solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_equation_of_state...

    Authors in the paper [4] propose a reversible isobaric heating concept, in which the plotted heating data points and cooling data points line on the same curve. Authors [4] consider this heating and cooling process very close to the ideal isobaric. A cartoon plot of reversible heating/cooling proposed in paper [4] is shown as Fig. 3.

  3. Dulong–Petit law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dulong–Petit_law

    An equivalent statement of the Dulong–Petit law in modern terms is that, regardless of the nature of the substance, the specific heat capacity c of a solid element (measured in joule per kelvin per kilogram) is equal to 3R/M, where R is the gas constant (measured in joule per kelvin per mole) and M is the molar mass (measured in kilogram per mole).

  4. Thermal conduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conduction

    Thermal conduction is the diffusion of thermal energy (heat) within one material or between materials in contact. The higher temperature object has molecules with more kinetic energy; collisions between molecules distributes this kinetic energy until an object has the same kinetic energy throughout.

  5. Newton's law of cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_cooling

    The heat flow experiences two resistances: the first outside the surface of the sphere, and the second within the solid metal (which is influenced by both the size and composition of the sphere). The ratio of these resistances is the dimensionless Biot number.

  6. Debye model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye_model

    Reduced specific heat for KCl, TiO2, and graphite, compared with the Debye theory based on elastic measurements (solid lines) [1]. In thermodynamics and solid-state physics, the Debye model is a method developed by Peter Debye in 1912 to estimate phonon contribution to the specific heat (heat capacity) in a solid. [2]

  7. Heisler chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heisler_Chart

    The third chart in each set was supplemented by Gröber in 1961, and this particular one shows the dimensionless heat transferred from the wall as a function of a dimensionless time variable. The vertical axis is a plot of Q / Q o , the ratio of actual heat transfer to the amount of total possible heat transfer before T = T ∞ .

  8. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The solid–liquid phase boundary can only end in a critical point if the solid and liquid phases have the same symmetry group. [5] For most substances, the solid–liquid phase boundary (or fusion curve) in the phase diagram has a positive slope so that the melting point increases with pressure.

  9. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    It is used in calculating the heat transfer, typically by convection or phase transition between a fluid and a solid. The heat transfer coefficient has SI units in watts per square meter per kelvin (W/(m 2 K)). The overall heat transfer rate for combined modes is usually expressed in terms of an overall conductance or heat transfer coefficient ...
