Heat and heating

Enthalpy. Enthalpy is the thermodynamic property of a substance defined as the sum of its internal energy plus the quantity Pv//, where P = pressure of the substance, v = its specific volume, and J = the mechanical equivalent of heat. Enthalpy is also known as total heat and heat content. 

Single-Effect Evaporators The heat requirements of a singleeffect continuous evaporator can be calculated by the usual methods of stoichiometry. If enthalpy data or specific heat and heat-of-solution data are not available, the heat requirement can be estimated as the sum of the heat needed to raise the feed from feed to product temperature and the heat required to evaporate the water. The latent heat of water is taken at the vapor-head pressure instead of at the product temperature in order to compensate partiaUv for any heat of solution. If sufficient vapor-pressure data are available for the solution, methods are available to calculate the true latent heat from the slope of the Diihriugliue [Othmer, Ind. Eng. Chem., 32, 841 (1940)].

The mass- and ener -balance equations must be solved numerically in the general situation where heat is transferred to or from walls. There are three terms on the right side of the energy equation, heat flow with reactants and products, reaction heat, and heat transfer through walls. Flowever, the adiabatic reactor is a special case where we need to solve only one equation for a single reaction. 

The evaporation of water is generally used to determine the gas film coefficient. A loss of heat in the water body can also be related to the gas film coefficient because the process of evaporation requires a significant amount of heat, and heat transfer across the water surface is analogous to evaporation if other sources and sinks of heat are taken into account. Although the techniques of Section 8.D can be used to determine the gas film coefficient over water bodies, they are still iterative, location specific, and dependent on fetch or wind duration. For that reason, investigators have developed empirical relationships to characterize gas film coefficient from field measurements of evaporation or temperature. Then, the air-water transfer of a nonvolatile compound is given as... 

Henri-Victor Regnault, 1810-1878. French chemist and physicist He made precise measurements of specific heats and heats of fusion and vaporization, and of the velocity of sound, and contributed to the theory of organic radicals. Among his students may be mentioned Cannizzaro, Kekule, and Mendeleev. 

Differential scanning calorimetry is applicable to the measurement of transition temperatures, specific heats, and heats of transition or reaction for all nonvolatile materials that do not evolve significant amounts of volatiles by reaction. The usual temperature range covered is -150 to 725°C. 

When patients suffer from chronic liver or kidney disease, the selection of the herbs and their dosages should be determined carefully to avoid placing an unnecessary workload on these weakened organs. At the same time, herbs that protect these organs and promote their function should also be included. For instance, acute or chronic liver diseases are mainly differentiated into a syndrome consisting of Spleen-Qi deficiency, damp-heat and heat-toxin accumulation, and herbs that treat this syndrome can be used. Chronic kidney diseases are mainly differentiated as Kidney-Yang and Spleen-Yang deficiency, dampness accumulation and heat-toxin in the blood. Herbs that treat this syndrome should be used in appropriate doses to help restore kidney function. 

If patients are on antibiotics, which are considered cold substances that reduce heat and heat-toxin, formulas which strongly reduce fire and which are cold and bitter in nature should be used with caution.

This is a very effective and commonly used formula. Its function of reducing heat and heat-toxin is stronger than that of Sang Ju Yin (Mulberry Leaf and Chrysanthemum Decoction), yet it is weaker in regulating the Lung-Qi. This formula, devised by Dr Wu Ju Tong, treats a common case of wind-heat syndrome. 

In the following problem we apply the principles involved in both specific heat and heats of transition.

Specific heat and heat capacity are always positive quantities. The official SI units for specific heat are thus J/(kg K). Whenever a quantity is divided by a mass, the term specific is usually placed in front of the name of the quantity. This is the origin of the specific in specific heat. Occasionally texts use units of J/(kg C°) or J/(kg °C). Technically, from a unit perspective this is not correct however, since specific heat involves a temperature interval and the size of a Kelvin is identical to a Celsius degree, the values are numerically the same. You may also see books where specific heat has been defined per gram of material instead of per kilogram. In these texts, the units for c will be J/(g K), J/(g C°),... 

We are now equipped with the necessary tools to solve problems involving specific heat and heat flow. Imagine a 10.0 g sample of copper that undergoes an increase in temperature from 25.0 to 100 °C when 289 J of heat is added. What is the specific heat of copper ...
