00:00:20.555 --> 00:00:23.300 align:middle line:84%
GANG CHEN: I have
a set of handouts.

00:00:23.300 --> 00:00:26.720 align:middle line:84%
If you don't get a copy,
it's all on the web.

00:00:26.720 --> 00:00:34.730 align:middle line:84%
And if I do this well, every
time you should get a handout.

00:00:34.730 --> 00:00:38.840 align:middle line:84%
And my objective
is for you to focus

00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:45.180 align:middle line:84%
on listening and discussion,
not to take notes.

00:00:45.180 --> 00:00:50.240 align:middle line:84%
So it's a [? similar ?]
handout, or you go--

00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:50.815 align:middle line:90%
it's online.

00:00:50.815 --> 00:00:55.750 align:middle line:90%


00:00:55.750 --> 00:01:02.440 align:middle line:84%
It's an experimental course,
the first time I'm offering it.

00:01:02.440 --> 00:01:11.690 align:middle line:84%
So it has a special,
say, 997 number, 6 units.

00:01:11.690 --> 00:01:16.090 align:middle line:84%
If you look at the handout,
if you print it out yesterday,

00:01:16.090 --> 00:01:21.130 align:middle line:84%
I changed something and one of
the changes is very important.

00:01:21.130 --> 00:01:26.230 align:middle line:84%
This course will
be pass fail basis.

00:01:26.230 --> 00:01:30.070 align:middle line:84%
And what does it
mean is if you are

00:01:30.070 --> 00:01:35.800 align:middle line:84%
undergraduate student,
for example, in course 2,

00:01:35.800 --> 00:01:41.740 align:middle line:84%
pass fail could count for
unrestricted elective.

00:01:41.740 --> 00:01:47.500 align:middle line:84%
But it does not count
for restricted elective.

00:01:47.500 --> 00:01:53.170 align:middle line:84%
And if you are course
2a, it does not count

00:01:53.170 --> 00:01:58.090 align:middle line:90%
for your concentration.

00:01:58.090 --> 00:02:01.690 align:middle line:84%
And if you are a
graduate student,

00:02:01.690 --> 00:02:05.710 align:middle line:84%
this is another
entry level course.

00:02:05.710 --> 00:02:08.229 align:middle line:90%
It's not an entry level course.

00:02:08.229 --> 00:02:11.980 align:middle line:84%
So those are just for
your clarification.

00:02:11.980 --> 00:02:19.720 align:middle line:84%
And if you look at the handout,
the syllabus, what we will have

00:02:19.720 --> 00:02:22.720 align:middle line:90%
is once a week at this time.

00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:27.880 align:middle line:90%
And also, I have office hour.

00:02:27.880 --> 00:02:31.150 align:middle line:90%
And I have volunteer TA.

00:02:31.150 --> 00:02:32.860 align:middle line:90%
Daniel is here.

00:02:32.860 --> 00:02:36.460 align:middle line:84%
You can contact him
if you have questions.

00:02:36.460 --> 00:02:41.470 align:middle line:84%
If necessary, we'll ask Daniel
also set up an office hour.

00:02:41.470 --> 00:02:44.660 align:middle line:90%
And what else?

00:02:44.660 --> 00:02:48.360 align:middle line:90%
I don't have a copy in my hand.

00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:48.860 align:middle line:90%
Thank you.

00:02:48.860 --> 00:02:56.800 align:middle line:84%
In terms of the
requirement homework,

00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:03.560 align:middle line:84%
the homework is every week
I will assign one reading.

00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:07.520 align:middle line:84%
And you will turn in
your report, one page

00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.820 align:middle line:90%
summary of the reading.

00:03:10.820 --> 00:03:14.870 align:middle line:84%
You can summarize
what you understand,

00:03:14.870 --> 00:03:17.090 align:middle line:90%
what you do not understand.

00:03:17.090 --> 00:03:20.570 align:middle line:90%
And that's the--

00:03:20.570 --> 00:03:24.370 align:middle line:84%
I do not see will give an
extra number of homeworks.

00:03:24.370 --> 00:03:27.200 align:middle line:84%
So it's a reading
based homework.

00:03:27.200 --> 00:03:31.730 align:middle line:84%
And at the end of
the semester, you

00:03:31.730 --> 00:03:35.870 align:middle line:84%
will write a final
report, project report.

00:03:35.870 --> 00:03:39.800 align:middle line:84%
And the detail of the
report will answer

00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.085 align:middle line:90%
in the middle of the semester.

00:03:42.085 --> 00:03:44.840 align:middle line:90%


00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:46.050 align:middle line:90%
Any questions?

00:03:46.050 --> 00:03:49.320 align:middle line:90%


00:03:49.320 --> 00:03:52.800 align:middle line:90%
OK if not, I will start.

00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:58.830 align:middle line:84%
Like I said already,
everything is online.

00:03:58.830 --> 00:04:03.070 align:middle line:84%
And you can jot down
whatever notes you want.

00:04:03.070 --> 00:04:07.480 align:middle line:84%
But my purpose is not to
have you write too much

00:04:07.480 --> 00:04:09.690 align:middle line:90%
and focus on this.

00:04:09.690 --> 00:04:12.960 align:middle line:84%
I do not have a
textbook on this.

00:04:12.960 --> 00:04:14.560 align:middle line:90%
So let me start.

00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:17.040 align:middle line:84%
So this course, if
you look at the title,

00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:22.590 align:middle line:84%
is a direct solar thermal to
electric energy conversion

00:04:22.590 --> 00:04:23.730 align:middle line:90%
technologies.

00:04:23.730 --> 00:04:27.810 align:middle line:84%
There are few points
I want to emphasize.

00:04:27.810 --> 00:04:31.980 align:middle line:90%
One is a heat-based course.

00:04:31.980 --> 00:04:37.380 align:middle line:84%
Solar thermal, this is all
focused on the thermal aspect.

00:04:37.380 --> 00:04:40.500 align:middle line:84%
The solar energy
is, in this course,

00:04:40.500 --> 00:04:43.380 align:middle line:90%
is a big, giant heat source.

00:04:43.380 --> 00:04:47.910 align:middle line:84%
And the other aspect
important in this course

00:04:47.910 --> 00:04:51.220 align:middle line:90%
is the direct energy conversion.

00:04:51.220 --> 00:04:54.730 align:middle line:84%
So the focus is
on how to convert

00:04:54.730 --> 00:04:57.880 align:middle line:84%
the heat into
electricity directly

00:04:57.880 --> 00:05:00.340 align:middle line:90%
without the moving parts.

00:05:00.340 --> 00:05:07.330 align:middle line:84%
And when I say the technology,
you realize that we move on.

00:05:07.330 --> 00:05:11.980 align:middle line:84%
Those technologies,
some already existing.

00:05:11.980 --> 00:05:16.330 align:middle line:84%
But clearly is not
widely spread used.

00:05:16.330 --> 00:05:19.270 align:middle line:90%
It's not widely used.

00:05:19.270 --> 00:05:23.230 align:middle line:84%
So they are still
under development.

00:05:23.230 --> 00:05:27.550 align:middle line:84%
And whether they will
work out or not down

00:05:27.550 --> 00:05:30.880 align:middle line:90%
the road is not completely sure.

00:05:30.880 --> 00:05:33.070 align:middle line:90%
But that's your opportunity.

00:05:33.070 --> 00:05:37.210 align:middle line:84%
You're here to do research
and future development.

00:05:37.210 --> 00:05:43.420 align:middle line:84%
And maybe you will push some of
this technology to real world.

00:05:43.420 --> 00:05:48.490 align:middle line:84%
So I will start with
this slide to make

00:05:48.490 --> 00:05:54.100 align:middle line:84%
a case that it's important
that we think about the heat.

00:05:54.100 --> 00:05:57.880 align:middle line:84%
You can start either
from the input side,

00:05:57.880 --> 00:06:01.750 align:middle line:84%
look at how we are
using all the energy.

00:06:01.750 --> 00:06:06.250 align:middle line:84%
Fossil fuel or even
nuclear, the energy source

00:06:06.250 --> 00:06:09.640 align:middle line:84%
from the energy source
to convert this energy

00:06:09.640 --> 00:06:13.160 align:middle line:84%
into electricity, into
mechanical energy.

00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:20.770 align:middle line:84%
You can see more than 90%
is [? VIP. ?] Mostly is

00:06:20.770 --> 00:06:23.440 align:middle line:84%
thermal mechanical
means to convert

00:06:23.440 --> 00:06:31.570 align:middle line:84%
the energy into mechanical
energy or electrical energy.

00:06:31.570 --> 00:06:37.130 align:middle line:84%
And the other aspect
is look at the end

00:06:37.130 --> 00:06:41.080 align:middle line:90%
use, how much energy is lost.

00:06:41.080 --> 00:06:45.520 align:middle line:84%
And you can only see
the numbers here.

00:06:45.520 --> 00:06:50.050 align:middle line:84%
You'll find out that more
than 60, about 60% to 70%

00:06:50.050 --> 00:06:53.490 align:middle line:90%
of the energy are wasted.

00:06:53.490 --> 00:06:57.540 align:middle line:84%
So what are we are
looking into is

00:06:57.540 --> 00:07:01.380 align:middle line:84%
whether we can develop
alternative ways

00:07:01.380 --> 00:07:07.980 align:middle line:84%
to either use the input energy
or convert some of the waste

00:07:07.980 --> 00:07:10.551 align:middle line:90%
energy into electricity.

00:07:10.551 --> 00:07:13.580 align:middle line:90%


00:07:13.580 --> 00:07:14.080 align:middle line:90%
Yes.

00:07:14.080 --> 00:07:16.960 align:middle line:90%


00:07:16.960 --> 00:07:22.610 align:middle line:84%
STUDENT: Are there 10%
missing or [INAUDIBLE]

00:07:22.610 --> 00:07:26.125 align:middle line:84%
GANG CHEN: 10% missing, you have
to look at some of this in here.

00:07:26.125 --> 00:07:35.640 align:middle line:90%


00:07:35.640 --> 00:07:37.230 align:middle line:84%
We're talking
about heat sources.

00:07:37.230 --> 00:07:39.210 align:middle line:90%
Just a few examples.

00:07:39.210 --> 00:07:44.760 align:middle line:84%
If you look at the automobile,
the driving efficiency

00:07:44.760 --> 00:07:48.820 align:middle line:84%
as a measurement
is less than 20%.

00:07:48.820 --> 00:07:53.700 align:middle line:84%
And if you want to remember,
it's easy to say about one third

00:07:53.700 --> 00:07:59.220 align:middle line:84%
of the energy goes through
the tailpipe exhaust.

00:07:59.220 --> 00:08:04.320 align:middle line:84%
The other third roughly
goes to the radiator.

00:08:04.320 --> 00:08:07.650 align:middle line:90%
Those are completed with--

00:08:07.650 --> 00:08:12.210 align:middle line:84%
so can we recover
some of this energy?

00:08:12.210 --> 00:08:16.950 align:middle line:84%
And in fact, this is challenging
because it's a model.

00:08:16.950 --> 00:08:21.210 align:middle line:84%
You have to feed into
the compact systems.

00:08:21.210 --> 00:08:27.520 align:middle line:84%
And in those cases, it turns out
people look at various options

00:08:27.520 --> 00:08:31.860 align:middle line:84%
by say the mechanical
way of converting

00:08:31.860 --> 00:08:35.770 align:middle line:84%
those energy into electricity
is not very feasible.

00:08:35.770 --> 00:08:38.730 align:middle line:84%
So there are a lot of companies
looking into thermoelectric,

00:08:38.730 --> 00:08:41.600 align:middle line:90%
for example.

00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:49.820 align:middle line:84%
And now you look at another way
that we use energy is buildings.

00:08:49.820 --> 00:08:52.020 align:middle line:90%
And give me an example.

00:08:52.020 --> 00:08:57.110 align:middle line:84%
In New England in the winter,
home furnace, boilers,

00:08:57.110 --> 00:08:59.240 align:middle line:90%
most of the time they are off.

00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:01.490 align:middle line:90%
Very often, they are on.

00:09:01.490 --> 00:09:04.970 align:middle line:84%
And there's a
combustion process.

00:09:04.970 --> 00:09:08.630 align:middle line:84%
And [INAUDIBLE] what
we're using for--

00:09:08.630 --> 00:09:12.240 align:middle line:90%
hot shower, heat up the room.

00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:15.200 align:middle line:90%
That's a low quality source.

00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:16.790 align:middle line:84%
Once you switch to
this temperature,

00:09:16.790 --> 00:09:19.850 align:middle line:84%
you have high
temperature combustion.

00:09:19.850 --> 00:09:24.590 align:middle line:84%
You quench to low temperature
just take a shower.

00:09:24.590 --> 00:09:28.970 align:middle line:84%
And you are generating
a lot of entropy.

00:09:28.970 --> 00:09:34.370 align:middle line:84%
And in some regions, there
are big coal fired power plant

00:09:34.370 --> 00:09:37.130 align:middle line:90%
or oil fired power plant.

00:09:37.130 --> 00:09:40.250 align:middle line:84%
In this case, the
people take the steam

00:09:40.250 --> 00:09:43.910 align:middle line:84%
and supply the heat
to the community.

00:09:43.910 --> 00:09:48.680 align:middle line:84%
That's electricity, heat
cogeneration, cogen plant.

00:09:48.680 --> 00:09:52.040 align:middle line:90%
But we don't do this at home.

00:09:52.040 --> 00:09:55.310 align:middle line:90%
The technology is not there yet.

00:09:55.310 --> 00:09:57.150 align:middle line:84%
People are still--
people are pushing.

00:09:57.150 --> 00:10:02.160 align:middle line:84%
And in fact, there is a, say,
[? Honda, ?] is fighting,

00:10:02.160 --> 00:10:06.630 align:middle line:84%
for example, developing home
stand-alone internal combustion

00:10:06.630 --> 00:10:09.360 align:middle line:90%
based system.

00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:12.980 align:middle line:84%
But it's still not
taking advantage.

00:10:12.980 --> 00:10:15.530 align:middle line:84%
During the combustion,
during the heat

00:10:15.530 --> 00:10:18.530 align:middle line:84%
of the hot water
process, we are really

00:10:18.530 --> 00:10:20.430 align:middle line:90%
generating a lot of entropy.

00:10:20.430 --> 00:10:24.020 align:middle line:90%
We are wasting useful energy.

00:10:24.020 --> 00:10:30.600 align:middle line:84%
Can we develop technologies
that can do home cogeneration?

00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:34.700 align:middle line:90%


00:10:34.700 --> 00:10:38.810 align:middle line:84%
Industrial process,
that's about another third

00:10:38.810 --> 00:10:41.780 align:middle line:90%
of the energy that's used.

00:10:41.780 --> 00:10:46.070 align:middle line:84%
And their heat sources
are different temperature,

00:10:46.070 --> 00:10:48.230 align:middle line:90%
where wide temperature range.

00:10:48.230 --> 00:10:52.010 align:middle line:84%
Once I visited the
aluminum smelting plant.

00:10:52.010 --> 00:10:58.790 align:middle line:84%
So that's just converting
aluminum oxide into aluminum.

00:10:58.790 --> 00:11:02.750 align:middle line:84%
And the process is a high
temperature electrochemical

00:11:02.750 --> 00:11:03.890 align:middle line:90%
process.

00:11:03.890 --> 00:11:08.420 align:middle line:84%
So you heat up aluminum
oxide to molten state.

00:11:08.420 --> 00:11:11.300 align:middle line:84%
And then you use a
electrochemical way

00:11:11.300 --> 00:11:14.600 align:middle line:90%
to extract the aluminum.

00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:17.330 align:middle line:84%
And those plants are
typically built just

00:11:17.330 --> 00:11:21.350 align:middle line:84%
beside power plants, the
electrical power plants.

00:11:21.350 --> 00:11:22.770 align:middle line:90%
They travel the highways.

00:11:22.770 --> 00:11:25.795 align:middle line:84%
There's a 500 megawatt
electrical input.

00:11:25.795 --> 00:11:28.550 align:middle line:90%


00:11:28.550 --> 00:11:32.190 align:middle line:84%
That's a huge power
generation, power requirement.

00:11:32.190 --> 00:11:36.450 align:middle line:84%
Just give you an example,
how much is a 500 megawatt?

00:11:36.450 --> 00:11:41.850 align:middle line:84%
A typical power plant
is about a one gigawatt.

00:11:41.850 --> 00:11:45.690 align:middle line:84%
And the world
solar installation,

00:11:45.690 --> 00:11:52.000 align:middle line:84%
solar photovoltaic installation,
it's about six gigawatts.

00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:57.070 align:middle line:84%
So one power plant, one
aluminum smelting plant,

00:11:57.070 --> 00:11:59.410 align:middle line:90%
takes 500 megawatt.

00:11:59.410 --> 00:12:02.530 align:middle line:84%
And, of course, there is
a part of this aluminum

00:12:02.530 --> 00:12:06.700 align:middle line:84%
oxide to aluminum energy
stored as chemical energy.

00:12:06.700 --> 00:12:14.040 align:middle line:84%
But the half of this is dumped
into our environment as heat.

00:12:14.040 --> 00:12:19.740 align:middle line:84%
And right now there's no
technology to really recoup this

00:12:19.740 --> 00:12:22.920 align:middle line:90%
into anything useful.

00:12:22.920 --> 00:12:33.010 align:middle line:84%
So now, you think about this
is a waste heat, renewables.

00:12:33.010 --> 00:12:35.920 align:middle line:84%
When we think about
the photovoltaic solar,

00:12:35.920 --> 00:12:38.620 align:middle line:84%
we often think
about photovoltaic.

00:12:38.620 --> 00:12:44.670 align:middle line:84%
But fundamentally, solar is a
high temperature heat source.

00:12:44.670 --> 00:12:47.220 align:middle line:84%
Anyone knows the
equivalent temperature

00:12:47.220 --> 00:12:50.730 align:middle line:84%
of the solar radiation
coming to Earth?

00:12:50.730 --> 00:12:52.110 align:middle line:90%
STUDENT: 20,000.

00:12:52.110 --> 00:12:52.950 align:middle line:90%
GANG CHEN: Close.

00:12:52.950 --> 00:12:56.285 align:middle line:90%
STUDENT: 7, 5, 7,000 kelvin.

00:12:56.285 --> 00:13:02.820 align:middle line:90%
GANG CHEN: 6,000 kelvin, 5,800.

00:13:02.820 --> 00:13:03.990 align:middle line:90%
And geothermal.

00:13:03.990 --> 00:13:05.050 align:middle line:90%
Those are renewable.

00:13:05.050 --> 00:13:07.500 align:middle line:90%
Those are heat sources.

00:13:07.500 --> 00:13:13.390 align:middle line:90%
So how we can use as a heat?

00:13:13.390 --> 00:13:16.320 align:middle line:84%
And in fact, if you look
at how people, what people

00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:21.840 align:middle line:84%
are doing now, the
solar utilization,

00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:25.950 align:middle line:84%
the biggest installation
is in solar water,

00:13:25.950 --> 00:13:29.460 align:middle line:84%
not in [INAUDIBLE],
just hot water.

00:13:29.460 --> 00:13:33.240 align:middle line:90%
And I came from China.

00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:35.350 align:middle line:84%
When I grew up, there
was no hot water.

00:13:35.350 --> 00:13:36.850 align:middle line:90%
[INAUDIBLE] didn't sell them.

00:13:36.850 --> 00:13:38.010 align:middle line:90%
I take a shower.

00:13:38.010 --> 00:13:40.290 align:middle line:90%
No water in the winter.

00:13:40.290 --> 00:13:46.050 align:middle line:84%
And nowadays when I go back
home, we have solar hot water.

00:13:46.050 --> 00:13:50.700 align:middle line:84%
And it was a really fundamental
life changing technology,

00:13:50.700 --> 00:13:52.290 align:middle line:90%
very cheap.

00:13:52.290 --> 00:13:54.480 align:middle line:90%
But it's actually high-tech.

00:13:54.480 --> 00:14:00.540 align:middle line:84%
So here I'm showing the
solar hot water system

00:14:00.540 --> 00:14:03.120 align:middle line:90%
that's widely used in China.

00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:06.480 align:middle line:84%
And give us a
order of magnitude,

00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:12.030 align:middle line:84%
it's about 100,000,000
square meter installation.

00:14:12.030 --> 00:14:14.100 align:middle line:90%
100,000,000 square meter.

00:14:14.100 --> 00:14:16.500 align:middle line:84%
And if you take
100,000,000 square meter,

00:14:16.500 --> 00:14:18.790 align:middle line:90%
you take a solar energy.

00:14:18.790 --> 00:14:22.710 align:middle line:84%
One square meter is
about one kilowatt.

00:14:22.710 --> 00:14:28.220 align:middle line:84%
And thermal efficiency, they
collect the heat around 60%.

00:14:28.220 --> 00:14:30.540 align:middle line:90%
So you multiply this together.

00:14:30.540 --> 00:14:31.470 align:middle line:90%
How much you get?

00:14:31.470 --> 00:14:39.920 align:middle line:84%
You get about 60 gigawatt
solar energy being used.

00:14:39.920 --> 00:14:47.330 align:middle line:84%
And I said as a high-tech,
this is a [INAUDIBLE] tube--

00:14:47.330 --> 00:14:48.980 align:middle line:90%
vacuum tube.

00:14:48.980 --> 00:14:52.190 align:middle line:84%
And so there is an inner
layer, outer layer.

00:14:52.190 --> 00:14:54.830 align:middle line:90%
And in between is a vacuum tube.

00:14:54.830 --> 00:15:00.650 align:middle line:84%
And in the inner layer
tube, there's a coating.

00:15:00.650 --> 00:15:04.460 align:middle line:84%
This coating will absorb
the solar radiation,

00:15:04.460 --> 00:15:08.120 align:middle line:84%
but the minimize the
thermal radiation.

00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:11.120 align:middle line:90%
And it's done very cheaply.

00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:17.240 align:middle line:84%
In a typical tube like
this high, it's only--

00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:21.500 align:middle line:84%
I waste of the ones that
are factory, $1.5 a tube,

00:15:21.500 --> 00:15:25.050 align:middle line:90%
[INAUDIBLE], all manufactured.

00:15:25.050 --> 00:15:28.260 align:middle line:84%
So because of the
really the low cost,

00:15:28.260 --> 00:15:32.270 align:middle line:84%
it's widely used in
developing countries.

00:15:32.270 --> 00:15:36.090 align:middle line:84%
And of course, you can talk
about the electrical generation.

00:15:36.090 --> 00:15:39.230 align:middle line:90%


00:15:39.230 --> 00:15:43.340 align:middle line:84%
This is their installation
in US Kramer Junction, where

00:15:43.340 --> 00:15:50.270 align:middle line:84%
the heat from the sun is a focus
through those parabolic troughs.

00:15:50.270 --> 00:15:51.650 align:middle line:90%
Heat up the fluids.

00:15:51.650 --> 00:15:56.620 align:middle line:84%
And these fluids are used
to drive steam turbines.

00:15:56.620 --> 00:16:01.060 align:middle line:84%
And there are also
the power system

00:16:01.060 --> 00:16:04.280 align:middle line:90%
that people are developing.

00:16:04.280 --> 00:16:09.280 align:middle line:84%
Some are used in Spain,
and I think also Algeria,

00:16:09.280 --> 00:16:14.440 align:middle line:84%
where the mirrors focus
and heat up the power here.

00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:16.750 align:middle line:84%
And this goes to a
higher temperature.

00:16:16.750 --> 00:16:21.860 align:middle line:84%
And the conversion is we
have mechanical systems.

00:16:21.860 --> 00:16:25.970 align:middle line:84%
And the question, [INAUDIBLE]
here in this course will not--

00:16:25.970 --> 00:16:29.150 align:middle line:84%
as I said, we're not looking
into mechanical energy

00:16:29.150 --> 00:16:30.020 align:middle line:90%
conversion.

00:16:30.020 --> 00:16:33.520 align:middle line:90%
We're looking into alternatives.

00:16:33.520 --> 00:16:36.070 align:middle line:90%
And I just want--

00:16:36.070 --> 00:16:40.210 align:middle line:84%
so some of those alternatives
that we're going to discuss,

00:16:40.210 --> 00:16:43.210 align:middle line:90%
one is a thermoelectric.

00:16:43.210 --> 00:16:48.040 align:middle line:90%
In fact, Daniel, does that work?

00:16:48.040 --> 00:16:49.780 align:middle line:90%
If you can turn it on.

00:16:49.780 --> 00:16:54.130 align:middle line:84%
So you will see that
this is a conversion

00:16:54.130 --> 00:16:57.130 align:middle line:84%
that, as long as there's
a temperature difference,

00:16:57.130 --> 00:16:59.120 align:middle line:90%
you can generate electricity.

00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:00.820 align:middle line:90%
It's by solid.

00:17:00.820 --> 00:17:05.829 align:middle line:84%
If you have used thermocouples,
those are essentially

00:17:05.829 --> 00:17:08.720 align:middle line:90%
thermocouples putting together.

00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:10.780 align:middle line:84%
Thermocouple, of
course, we just want

00:17:10.780 --> 00:17:13.359 align:middle line:84%
to generate an
electrical signal.

00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:19.210 align:middle line:84%
But in this case, you can also,
if you make the efficient,

00:17:19.210 --> 00:17:24.030 align:middle line:84%
you convert heat
into electricity.

00:17:24.030 --> 00:17:32.520 align:middle line:84%
The second-- here, the
working fluids is electron.

00:17:32.520 --> 00:17:37.300 align:middle line:84%
And in this demo, what
we have is just a copper.

00:17:37.300 --> 00:17:38.250 align:middle line:90%
Here is a heat source.

00:17:38.250 --> 00:17:41.070 align:middle line:84%
Copper coming out
heat to this side.

00:17:41.070 --> 00:17:42.690 align:middle line:90%
The top side is hot.

00:17:42.690 --> 00:17:46.180 align:middle line:84%
And there is this thermoelectric
device, very thin.

00:17:46.180 --> 00:17:49.350 align:middle line:84%
It's about two millimeter,
three millimeter sandwiched

00:17:49.350 --> 00:17:54.900 align:middle line:84%
between this copper and the
heatsink, aluminum block.

00:17:54.900 --> 00:17:56.560 align:middle line:90%
And hopefully I don't see it.

00:17:56.560 --> 00:18:00.030 align:middle line:84%
But once the temperature
difference, there a difference,

00:18:00.030 --> 00:18:06.210 align:middle line:84%
you'll start to see
the LEDs lighting up.

00:18:06.210 --> 00:18:10.740 align:middle line:84%
So that's direct, no moving
parts, using electronics

00:18:10.740 --> 00:18:13.020 align:middle line:90%
as working fluids.

00:18:13.020 --> 00:18:16.840 align:middle line:84%
And the second example is
thermionic energy conversion.

00:18:16.840 --> 00:18:19.880 align:middle line:90%


00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:22.730 align:middle line:84%
How many of you know
that in our department

00:18:22.730 --> 00:18:25.740 align:middle line:84%
there is a microfluidic
catabolism plant?

00:18:25.740 --> 00:18:28.270 align:middle line:90%


00:18:28.270 --> 00:18:29.230 align:middle line:90%
Fabulous.

00:18:29.230 --> 00:18:33.940 align:middle line:84%
That's on the second
building 3, second floor.

00:18:33.940 --> 00:18:38.080 align:middle line:84%
[INAUDIBLE] was a professor
in the mechanical engineering

00:18:38.080 --> 00:18:41.470 align:middle line:90%
department, 1950s.

00:18:41.470 --> 00:18:46.420 align:middle line:84%
And he developed this
thermionic engine.

00:18:46.420 --> 00:18:50.055 align:middle line:90%
So you can see it lighting up.

00:18:50.055 --> 00:18:53.440 align:middle line:84%
And of course, you have to
maintain this temperature

00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:53.990 align:middle line:90%
difference.

00:18:53.990 --> 00:18:56.800 align:middle line:84%
So if we burn it for a
long time, the other side,

00:18:56.800 --> 00:18:59.690 align:middle line:90%
the cooling is not there.

00:18:59.690 --> 00:19:02.330 align:middle line:84%
The temperature difference
will be becomes small.

00:19:02.330 --> 00:19:06.110 align:middle line:84%
Your power, I saw it before,
it actually fluctuated before.

00:19:06.110 --> 00:19:09.080 align:middle line:84%
But this is also another
important aspect.

00:19:09.080 --> 00:19:10.190 align:middle line:90%
It's a thermal system.

00:19:10.190 --> 00:19:13.900 align:middle line:84%
So you have to put the
heat in, take the heat out.

00:19:13.900 --> 00:19:19.570 align:middle line:84%
And the converter is small, but
your thermal [? auxiliary ?]

00:19:19.570 --> 00:19:20.980 align:middle line:90%
system may be very big.

00:19:20.980 --> 00:19:22.935 align:middle line:84%
So you have to do a
good engineering design.

00:19:22.935 --> 00:19:25.500 align:middle line:90%


00:19:25.500 --> 00:19:30.470 align:middle line:84%
I was mentioning thermionic
energy emission and energy

00:19:30.470 --> 00:19:31.550 align:middle line:90%
conversion.

00:19:31.550 --> 00:19:35.780 align:middle line:84%
And Professor [INAUDIBLE]
started his PhD

00:19:35.780 --> 00:19:38.390 align:middle line:90%
on thermionic engines.

00:19:38.390 --> 00:19:43.010 align:middle line:84%
And it's been off
thermo electron.

00:19:43.010 --> 00:19:47.090 align:middle line:84%
If you drive 128, you probably
see that [? component. ?]

00:19:47.090 --> 00:19:51.290 align:middle line:84%
Thermo electron is
called thermo feature.

00:19:51.290 --> 00:19:59.060 align:middle line:84%
And the original purpose was to
develop the thermionic engines.

00:19:59.060 --> 00:20:04.940 align:middle line:84%
In fact, if you go to read
it, it's 1956 or 58, I forgot.

00:20:04.940 --> 00:20:12.040 align:middle line:84%
In the 1950s and 1960s, the
efficiency was about 18% from

00:20:12.040 --> 00:20:12.780 align:middle line:90%
heat [INAUDIBLE].

00:20:12.780 --> 00:20:14.330 align:middle line:84%
But it's a very
high temperature.

00:20:14.330 --> 00:20:16.490 align:middle line:84%
So there are a lot of
technological difficulties

00:20:16.490 --> 00:20:19.370 align:middle line:84%
and at the end
they didn't pursue

00:20:19.370 --> 00:20:22.950 align:middle line:90%
in terms of commercialization.

00:20:22.950 --> 00:20:27.000 align:middle line:84%
Of course, photovoltaic,
normally we

00:20:27.000 --> 00:20:30.060 align:middle line:84%
don't think of it
as a heat engine.

00:20:30.060 --> 00:20:32.670 align:middle line:90%
But it is a heat engine.

00:20:32.670 --> 00:20:37.690 align:middle line:84%
It's limited by the second
law of thermodynamics.

00:20:37.690 --> 00:20:41.110 align:middle line:84%
And in fact, any time we can
get close to the second law,

00:20:41.110 --> 00:20:44.210 align:middle line:90%
you'd be really happy.

00:20:44.210 --> 00:20:48.530 align:middle line:84%
But see, this is, of course,
using the photon from the sun.

00:20:48.530 --> 00:20:53.030 align:middle line:84%
And there's another way is using
the photon from a [INAUDIBLE]

00:20:53.030 --> 00:20:54.380 align:middle line:90%
or a resource.

00:20:54.380 --> 00:20:56.330 align:middle line:90%
You have a home furnace.

00:20:56.330 --> 00:20:59.340 align:middle line:84%
And you can use the photon from
there to put a photovoltaic.

00:20:59.340 --> 00:21:01.370 align:middle line:84%
That's called a
thermophotovoltaic.

00:21:01.370 --> 00:21:05.270 align:middle line:84%
So those are all ways
some of the direct energy

00:21:05.270 --> 00:21:10.250 align:middle line:84%
conversion, no moving parts here
is using the charge as a fluid.

00:21:10.250 --> 00:21:14.930 align:middle line:84%
And we'll be talking some
of those technologies

00:21:14.930 --> 00:21:17.060 align:middle line:90%
and the basic principles.

00:21:17.060 --> 00:21:19.160 align:middle line:84%
And of course, when we
think about the solar,

00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:23.060 align:middle line:84%
the advantage compare
potential advantage--

00:21:23.060 --> 00:21:25.640 align:middle line:84%
doesn't say it's
demonstrated fully yet--

00:21:25.640 --> 00:21:28.820 align:middle line:84%
is that in the case
of photovoltaic,

00:21:28.820 --> 00:21:33.230 align:middle line:84%
only the energy above the
bandgap of semiconductor useful.

00:21:33.230 --> 00:21:35.270 align:middle line:84%
But when you think
about solar thermal,

00:21:35.270 --> 00:21:39.590 align:middle line:84%
you can think about the full
spectrum of the solar energy.

00:21:39.590 --> 00:21:48.050 align:middle line:84%
So this year we started actually
department energy center

00:21:48.050 --> 00:21:51.950 align:middle line:84%
looking into how we can
advance this technology.

00:21:51.950 --> 00:21:55.580 align:middle line:84%
What is solar
thermal photovoltaic?

00:21:55.580 --> 00:22:01.010 align:middle line:84%
So here, the idea is I take
the solar energy, absorb it.

00:22:01.010 --> 00:22:04.400 align:middle line:84%
This is not directly
onto photovoltaic cell.

00:22:04.400 --> 00:22:09.920 align:middle line:84%
But they absorb it to heat up
this and re-emit the photon.

00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:11.190 align:middle line:90%
Why do you do that?

00:22:11.190 --> 00:22:12.920 align:middle line:84%
Because when you
re-emit the photon,

00:22:12.920 --> 00:22:15.150 align:middle line:84%
if you can do
better control, you

00:22:15.150 --> 00:22:17.940 align:middle line:84%
can emit photons
right at the bandgap

00:22:17.940 --> 00:22:20.100 align:middle line:90%
of the photovoltaic cell.

00:22:20.100 --> 00:22:23.160 align:middle line:84%
And theory says
you can potentially

00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:27.450 align:middle line:84%
get a really high efficiency
with a single junction

00:22:27.450 --> 00:22:31.390 align:middle line:90%
cell, but no demonstration.

00:22:31.390 --> 00:22:36.070 align:middle line:84%
So that's one of the direction
we're looking in this center.

00:22:36.070 --> 00:22:40.480 align:middle line:84%
And the other direction is
looking into thermoelectric,

00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:42.550 align:middle line:90%
just like what we have here.

00:22:42.550 --> 00:22:46.600 align:middle line:84%
The temperature difference,
instead of the burner here,

00:22:46.600 --> 00:22:50.140 align:middle line:84%
using this anytime you have
temperature difference.

00:22:50.140 --> 00:22:54.880 align:middle line:84%
And again, the k is how we
can make this efficient,

00:22:54.880 --> 00:22:57.760 align:middle line:90%
how we can make that low cost.

00:22:57.760 --> 00:23:02.950 align:middle line:84%
So when you think about energy,
the cost is the main concern.

00:23:02.950 --> 00:23:06.440 align:middle line:84%
The photovoltaic cost
right now is just too high.

00:23:06.440 --> 00:23:12.190 align:middle line:84%
So most people are reluctant
to put on their rooftop.

00:23:12.190 --> 00:23:19.160 align:middle line:84%
So that's the motivations
for this course.

00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:22.990 align:middle line:84%
And to really understand
those technology,

00:23:22.990 --> 00:23:26.380 align:middle line:84%
we'll have to dive
into, for some of us--

00:23:26.380 --> 00:23:32.830 align:middle line:84%
[INAUDIBLE] For some of
us, this may be unfamiliar,

00:23:32.830 --> 00:23:36.400 align:middle line:84%
territory, particularly, I
think for mechanical engineers,

00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:44.050 align:middle line:84%
because most of the time, we
are familiar with heat engines

00:23:44.050 --> 00:23:47.620 align:middle line:90%
using steam, using molecules.

00:23:47.620 --> 00:23:51.370 align:middle line:84%
And here we're talking
about heat engine

00:23:51.370 --> 00:23:54.970 align:middle line:90%
using electrons and solid.

00:23:54.970 --> 00:24:00.430 align:middle line:84%
So we'll have to cover some
of the basic background

00:24:00.430 --> 00:24:04.060 align:middle line:84%
knowledge in this area and
understand the technology,

00:24:04.060 --> 00:24:08.590 align:middle line:84%
understand the
limitations, and I

00:24:08.590 --> 00:24:10.830 align:middle line:84%
want to bring you to the
forefront of research.

00:24:10.830 --> 00:24:12.760 align:middle line:90%
What are people doing?

00:24:12.760 --> 00:24:16.390 align:middle line:84%
Maybe you have new ideas
in doing new things.

00:24:16.390 --> 00:24:20.110 align:middle line:84%
Now, just make another comment,
this is very different.

00:24:20.110 --> 00:24:25.200 align:middle line:84%
You can say the dying
down process is slow.

00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:29.220 align:middle line:84%
Thermal has a potential
to do storage.

00:24:29.220 --> 00:24:33.150 align:middle line:84%
With a thermal mass, you
can store the energy.

00:24:33.150 --> 00:24:35.700 align:middle line:84%
A photovoltaic will take if
there's no light emitted,

00:24:35.700 --> 00:24:37.710 align:middle line:90%
don't have any power in it.

00:24:37.710 --> 00:24:42.320 align:middle line:84%
So that's one potential
advantage of thinking thermal.

00:24:42.320 --> 00:24:45.390 align:middle line:90%


00:24:45.390 --> 00:24:49.380 align:middle line:84%
OK, so now I'm going
to move into really--

00:24:49.380 --> 00:24:51.840 align:middle line:84%
the first what I
want to use here

00:24:51.840 --> 00:24:59.580 align:middle line:84%
is to review some thermodynamics
and the heat transfer.

00:24:59.580 --> 00:25:04.260 align:middle line:84%
And if you have
taken thermodynamics,

00:25:04.260 --> 00:25:06.840 align:middle line:84%
you will know some
of the material.

00:25:06.840 --> 00:25:11.100 align:middle line:84%
If you are from other
department like physics,

00:25:11.100 --> 00:25:13.860 align:middle line:90%
you also know some material.

00:25:13.860 --> 00:25:17.130 align:middle line:84%
Most groups have some material,
maybe enough material.

00:25:17.130 --> 00:25:20.160 align:middle line:84%
But my advice is
just to take it.

00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:22.650 align:middle line:84%
This is, I would say
this is my starting point

00:25:22.650 --> 00:25:25.820 align:middle line:90%
for future discussions.

00:25:25.820 --> 00:25:29.685 align:middle line:84%
So when we think
about the first law,

00:25:29.685 --> 00:25:31.560 align:middle line:84%
with thermodynamics we
think about two laws--

00:25:31.560 --> 00:25:34.430 align:middle line:84%
First law of thermodynamics,
second law of thermodynamics.

00:25:34.430 --> 00:25:41.240 align:middle line:84%
We take a system and we define
by defining the boundaries.

00:25:41.240 --> 00:25:45.030 align:middle line:84%
So the boundary
define our system.

00:25:45.030 --> 00:25:48.140 align:middle line:84%
And across the boundary
we have heat flow.

00:25:48.140 --> 00:25:49.820 align:middle line:90%
We have work flow.

00:25:49.820 --> 00:25:57.050 align:middle line:84%
And typical convention is
that they say heat goes in.

00:25:57.050 --> 00:25:58.520 align:middle line:90%
We take the positive.

00:25:58.520 --> 00:25:59.810 align:middle line:90%
And work goes out.

00:25:59.810 --> 00:26:01.520 align:middle line:90%
We take as a positive.

00:26:01.520 --> 00:26:03.330 align:middle line:90%
That's just due to convention.

00:26:03.330 --> 00:26:06.320 align:middle line:84%
If you get a negative sign,
it means your heat goes out

00:26:06.320 --> 00:26:08.510 align:middle line:90%
or work goes in.

00:26:08.510 --> 00:26:11.040 align:middle line:84%
And then we have
closed system means

00:26:11.040 --> 00:26:14.270 align:middle line:84%
that there is no mass flow
across the system boundary,

00:26:14.270 --> 00:26:18.980 align:middle line:84%
or open system when there is
a mass flow across system.

00:26:18.980 --> 00:26:22.580 align:middle line:84%
In the simplest form
of thermodynamics,

00:26:22.580 --> 00:26:27.770 align:middle line:84%
the first law is just
the energy balance.

00:26:27.770 --> 00:26:30.140 align:middle line:84%
On the left hand side,
I have the energy

00:26:30.140 --> 00:26:34.250 align:middle line:84%
of the system,
the energy change.

00:26:34.250 --> 00:26:37.460 align:middle line:84%
And on the right hand
side is the heat transfer

00:26:37.460 --> 00:26:40.820 align:middle line:84%
into the system minus
the work output.

00:26:40.820 --> 00:26:45.050 align:middle line:90%
Simple energy balance.

00:26:45.050 --> 00:26:46.970 align:middle line:84%
You can write it in
the differential form

00:26:46.970 --> 00:26:49.250 align:middle line:84%
or you can write into
[INAUDIBLE] form.

00:26:49.250 --> 00:26:50.540 align:middle line:90%
And then you do heat transfer.

00:26:50.540 --> 00:26:54.850 align:middle line:84%
You actually use the
[INAUDIBLE] form most often.

00:26:54.850 --> 00:26:58.420 align:middle line:84%
See, some of you
may still remember

00:26:58.420 --> 00:27:03.010 align:middle line:84%
what's important is to
recognize on the left hand

00:27:03.010 --> 00:27:08.170 align:middle line:84%
side is a state property that
does not depend on the process.

00:27:08.170 --> 00:27:11.660 align:middle line:84%
On the right hand side
is a process dependent.

00:27:11.660 --> 00:27:13.910 align:middle line:90%
So it's actually very amazing.

00:27:13.910 --> 00:27:16.960 align:middle line:84%
You take two process
dependent quantity.

00:27:16.960 --> 00:27:18.280 align:middle line:90%
You take a difference.

00:27:18.280 --> 00:27:22.280 align:middle line:84%
You get a quantity that's
independent of the process.

00:27:22.280 --> 00:27:23.450 align:middle line:90%
Looks very simple.

00:27:23.450 --> 00:27:27.000 align:middle line:84%
But this is a truly
important aspect.

00:27:27.000 --> 00:27:29.870 align:middle line:90%


00:27:29.870 --> 00:27:32.600 align:middle line:84%
And the energy of
the system, including

00:27:32.600 --> 00:27:38.480 align:middle line:84%
kinetic energy, potential
energy, and internal energy.

00:27:38.480 --> 00:27:43.445 align:middle line:84%
Or if you have other forms of
energy, like elastic, magnetic,

00:27:43.445 --> 00:27:43.945 align:middle line:90%
or those.

00:27:43.945 --> 00:27:46.780 align:middle line:90%


00:27:46.780 --> 00:27:51.100 align:middle line:84%
And consider your
relation that we're using

00:27:51.100 --> 00:27:53.650 align:middle line:90%
is specific heat, for example.

00:27:53.650 --> 00:28:01.810 align:middle line:84%
And here the specific heat
is the temperature derivative

00:28:01.810 --> 00:28:03.850 align:middle line:90%
of the internal energy.

00:28:03.850 --> 00:28:06.310 align:middle line:84%
Here, the internal energy,
I use a small [INAUDIBLE].

00:28:06.310 --> 00:28:09.010 align:middle line:84%
It could be either
per unit mass based

00:28:09.010 --> 00:28:11.595 align:middle line:90%
or per unit of volume based.

00:28:11.595 --> 00:28:14.840 align:middle line:90%


00:28:14.840 --> 00:28:18.540 align:middle line:90%
So, that's the first law.

00:28:18.540 --> 00:28:21.090 align:middle line:90%
Second law.

00:28:21.090 --> 00:28:26.310 align:middle line:84%
Second law we're written
into our equation.

00:28:26.310 --> 00:28:29.100 align:middle line:90%
But it's not an equation.

00:28:29.100 --> 00:28:32.160 align:middle line:90%
It's an inequality.

00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:35.930 align:middle line:84%
And what we have here
is the entropy change.

00:28:35.930 --> 00:28:41.010 align:middle line:84%
Again, this is a state
property, entropy, equals

00:28:41.010 --> 00:28:45.900 align:middle line:84%
the entropy transferred
across the system boundary

00:28:45.900 --> 00:28:50.370 align:middle line:84%
and pass entropy
generation in the system.

00:28:50.370 --> 00:28:54.570 align:middle line:84%
On the right hand side
it's process dependent.

00:28:54.570 --> 00:28:57.840 align:middle line:84%
And on the left hand
side is state properties

00:28:57.840 --> 00:29:02.080 align:middle line:90%
that's independent processes.

00:29:02.080 --> 00:29:07.600 align:middle line:84%
Now, I think about
the heat engines.

00:29:07.600 --> 00:29:11.560 align:middle line:84%
The heat engine, which
when we think about engine,

00:29:11.560 --> 00:29:13.690 align:middle line:90%
we think about cyclic motion.

00:29:13.690 --> 00:29:15.730 align:middle line:90%
You don't want to design engine.

00:29:15.730 --> 00:29:18.880 align:middle line:84%
You only go one direction,
doesn't come back.

00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:25.810 align:middle line:84%
And so when we think
about cyclic motion

00:29:25.810 --> 00:29:28.190 align:middle line:84%
during a cycle,
any state property,

00:29:28.190 --> 00:29:31.090 align:middle line:84%
go back to the original,
the independent process.

00:29:31.090 --> 00:29:33.910 align:middle line:84%
Once it goes back,
the charge is 0.

00:29:33.910 --> 00:29:37.160 align:middle line:84%
So here, we just wrote
the entropy and energy,

00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:39.580 align:middle line:90%
and other state properties.

00:29:39.580 --> 00:29:43.990 align:middle line:84%
So if the entropy
change is 0, now

00:29:43.990 --> 00:29:48.640 align:middle line:84%
what's the maximum
efficiency you can get?

00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:54.160 align:middle line:84%
And maximum happens when
there's no entropy generation.

00:29:54.160 --> 00:29:57.310 align:middle line:84%
So if there is no entropy
generation. [? SG ?] is 0.

00:29:57.310 --> 00:29:59.660 align:middle line:90%
And I look at this is my system.

00:29:59.660 --> 00:30:01.450 align:middle line:90%
The heat is positive.

00:30:01.450 --> 00:30:03.100 align:middle line:90%
Heat output is negative.

00:30:03.100 --> 00:30:09.230 align:middle line:84%
So I have my second law written
into left hand side is 0.

00:30:09.230 --> 00:30:10.910 align:middle line:90%
Entropy generation is 0.

00:30:10.910 --> 00:30:13.820 align:middle line:84%
This entropy transfer
across system boundary.

00:30:13.820 --> 00:30:19.840 align:middle line:84%
And this gives me a relation
between the heat in and heat out

00:30:19.840 --> 00:30:22.240 align:middle line:84%
and temperature of
the two reservoirs.

00:30:22.240 --> 00:30:26.560 align:middle line:84%
And if I use this
relation, I go to calculate

00:30:26.560 --> 00:30:30.760 align:middle line:84%
what's in this case, what's the
efficiency of this heat engine.

00:30:30.760 --> 00:30:32.440 align:middle line:84%
You can see the
efficiency, of course,

00:30:32.440 --> 00:30:36.310 align:middle line:84%
we define as the work we
get versus the price you

00:30:36.310 --> 00:30:39.740 align:middle line:90%
pay as the heat in.

00:30:39.740 --> 00:30:43.170 align:middle line:90%
The efficiency here is the work.

00:30:43.170 --> 00:30:45.250 align:middle line:84%
Now, the work
first all tells you

00:30:45.250 --> 00:30:48.040 align:middle line:84%
the work equals heat
in minus heat out

00:30:48.040 --> 00:30:53.260 align:middle line:84%
because the internal energy
during a cycle change is 0.

00:30:53.260 --> 00:30:56.290 align:middle line:84%
So you can see you've got
a [? power ?] efficiency.

00:30:56.290 --> 00:30:59.800 align:middle line:84%
That's the maximum you can
get for any heat engine

00:30:59.800 --> 00:31:04.495 align:middle line:84%
operating between two constant
temperature [INAUDIBLE].

00:31:04.495 --> 00:31:08.140 align:middle line:90%


00:31:08.140 --> 00:31:14.550 align:middle line:84%
People sometimes look
down into heat engine.

00:31:14.550 --> 00:31:19.500 align:middle line:84%
It's a heat engine, meaning
it's thermal dynamic.

00:31:19.500 --> 00:31:23.500 align:middle line:84%
It's not-- you can't convert
all the heat into electricity.

00:31:23.500 --> 00:31:26.530 align:middle line:84%
That's correct, unless
you have 0 Kelvin.

00:31:26.530 --> 00:31:31.290 align:middle line:84%
But the important thing is
that you put in the lumber

00:31:31.290 --> 00:31:33.930 align:middle line:90%
and you see where we are.

00:31:33.930 --> 00:31:36.960 align:middle line:84%
The heat engine is very
[? respectful ?] if you have

00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:41.060 align:middle line:84%
even just a 200 degrees
temperature heat source

00:31:41.060 --> 00:31:43.890 align:middle line:84%
and if you can get
[INAUDIBLE] efficiency--

00:31:43.890 --> 00:31:46.620 align:middle line:90%
40%.

00:31:46.620 --> 00:31:50.603 align:middle line:90%
If you take the sun, 95%.

00:31:50.603 --> 00:31:53.200 align:middle line:90%


00:31:53.200 --> 00:32:00.040 align:middle line:84%
And then more than thermal
power plant is about 40%.

00:32:00.040 --> 00:32:04.270 align:middle line:84%
I said automobile internal
combustion engines.

00:32:04.270 --> 00:32:06.550 align:middle line:84%
The driving efficiency
is less than 20%

00:32:06.550 --> 00:32:11.840 align:middle line:84%
and the AC engine efficiency
is probably around 25%.

00:32:11.840 --> 00:32:15.710 align:middle line:84%
So heat engine,
if you can achieve

00:32:15.710 --> 00:32:22.520 align:middle line:84%
the theoretical efficiency,
you're doing really well.

00:32:22.520 --> 00:32:24.740 align:middle line:84%
The problem is there
are a lot of losses

00:32:24.740 --> 00:32:28.400 align:middle line:84%
that limits us to get to
practical [INAUDIBLE],

00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:32.690 align:middle line:84%
practically get too close
to the economy efficiency.

00:32:32.690 --> 00:32:39.470 align:middle line:84%
So that's what you learn
in 2005 thermodynamics.

00:32:39.470 --> 00:32:43.200 align:middle line:84%
Now I want to go to a little
bit microscopic picture.

00:32:43.200 --> 00:32:46.640 align:middle line:84%
Because what's an
entropy, for example?

00:32:46.640 --> 00:32:52.520 align:middle line:84%
And so let's look at
an isolated system.

00:32:52.520 --> 00:32:56.600 align:middle line:84%
An isolated means there
is no heat transfer

00:32:56.600 --> 00:33:01.850 align:middle line:84%
across system boundary, no work
transfer, no mass transfer.

00:33:01.850 --> 00:33:03.710 align:middle line:90%
It's isolated.

00:33:03.710 --> 00:33:09.170 align:middle line:84%
And I'm going to look at,
imagine I have the magic eye,

00:33:09.170 --> 00:33:12.230 align:middle line:84%
can look at the individual
molecules, the electrons

00:33:12.230 --> 00:33:14.120 align:middle line:90%
in the system.

00:33:14.120 --> 00:33:21.320 align:middle line:84%
And there are many different
possible configurations.

00:33:21.320 --> 00:33:24.170 align:middle line:84%
A molecule, so the
molecules in the system

00:33:24.170 --> 00:33:28.040 align:middle line:84%
could be at different
states, different position.

00:33:28.040 --> 00:33:31.820 align:middle line:84%
And each atom could have many
different possible energy

00:33:31.820 --> 00:33:32.410 align:middle line:90%
states.

00:33:32.410 --> 00:33:35.550 align:middle line:90%
This is from quantum mechanics.

00:33:35.550 --> 00:33:40.350 align:middle line:84%
So every possible
configuration possibility--

00:33:40.350 --> 00:33:45.690 align:middle line:84%
you can go back and take a two
color, two different color beads

00:33:45.690 --> 00:33:46.770 align:middle line:90%
and mix them up.

00:33:46.770 --> 00:33:51.360 align:middle line:84%
That's your experiment
on this micro picture.

00:33:51.360 --> 00:33:57.870 align:middle line:84%
And every possible
configuration is a micro state.

00:33:57.870 --> 00:34:01.170 align:middle line:84%
And let's suppose
we know how to count

00:34:01.170 --> 00:34:05.070 align:middle line:84%
what's the total number of
those possible configurations.

00:34:05.070 --> 00:34:11.080 align:middle line:84%
So the total number, that's
omega microscopic state.

00:34:11.080 --> 00:34:15.060 align:middle line:90%
Those are very big numbers.

00:34:15.060 --> 00:34:18.600 align:middle line:84%
Now, what are the
basic principle

00:34:18.600 --> 00:34:22.920 align:middle line:84%
of this microscopic
picture says every state

00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:28.980 align:middle line:84%
that is equally possible, equal
rights, no discrimination.

00:34:28.980 --> 00:34:34.290 align:middle line:84%
And so this is the equal
probability principle.

00:34:34.290 --> 00:34:38.730 align:middle line:84%
Every micro state
is equally possible.

00:34:38.730 --> 00:34:41.350 align:middle line:90%
And it's based on this.

00:34:41.350 --> 00:34:45.080 align:middle line:84%
All the statistical
description of

00:34:45.080 --> 00:34:49.830 align:middle line:84%
the statistical thermodynamics
is based on, starting from here.

00:34:49.830 --> 00:34:55.260 align:middle line:84%
And what Boltzmann
did is to relate

00:34:55.260 --> 00:35:00.720 align:middle line:84%
this number of total
microstates to interpol.

00:35:00.720 --> 00:35:03.510 align:middle line:84%
This is actually in
Boltzmann tombstone.

00:35:03.510 --> 00:35:06.270 align:middle line:90%
It goes to Vienna.

00:35:06.270 --> 00:35:11.670 align:middle line:84%
And this kB is the
Boltzmann constant, 1.3.

00:35:11.670 --> 00:35:13.200 align:middle line:90%
I don't remember any--

00:35:13.200 --> 00:35:16.380 align:middle line:84%
people in physics,
they use atomic units.

00:35:16.380 --> 00:35:20.280 align:middle line:84%
I always remember
things in the SI unit.

00:35:20.280 --> 00:35:23.850 align:middle line:84%
So that's a difficult
large exponent,

00:35:23.850 --> 00:35:28.130 align:middle line:90%
10 to the minus third [? jar. ?]

00:35:28.130 --> 00:35:30.210 align:middle line:84%
That's good to keep
some numbers in mind.

00:35:30.210 --> 00:35:36.220 align:middle line:84%
So that's the, like I
said, a starting point

00:35:36.220 --> 00:35:39.400 align:middle line:90%
for the microscopic description.

00:35:39.400 --> 00:35:44.770 align:middle line:84%
And here, we'll consider
an isolated system.

00:35:44.770 --> 00:35:50.170 align:middle line:84%
And now if you think about
a not isolated system,

00:35:50.170 --> 00:35:53.020 align:middle line:84%
a system that can
thermally [INAUDIBLE]

00:35:53.020 --> 00:35:56.200 align:middle line:84%
exchange energy with
the environment.

00:35:56.200 --> 00:35:59.860 align:middle line:84%
And because of that,
each micro state

00:35:59.860 --> 00:36:03.650 align:middle line:84%
is no longer have equal right
in terms of observation.

00:36:03.650 --> 00:36:08.110 align:middle line:84%
The probability of this system,
if you can observe this system

00:36:08.110 --> 00:36:13.480 align:middle line:84%
in certain specific micro state
that has certain energy, e.

00:36:13.480 --> 00:36:18.890 align:middle line:84%
And in this case, this is
no longer equal probability.

00:36:18.890 --> 00:36:21.590 align:middle line:84%
And we're not going
to derivation.

00:36:21.590 --> 00:36:24.830 align:middle line:84%
But you can go from
here, equal probability,

00:36:24.830 --> 00:36:26.960 align:middle line:84%
to construct an
isolated system that

00:36:26.960 --> 00:36:30.090 align:middle line:84%
made up your system
and the environment.

00:36:30.090 --> 00:36:33.170 align:middle line:84%
And with all that
derivation at the end.

00:36:33.170 --> 00:36:38.240 align:middle line:84%
We get the probability of
the system actually inserting

00:36:38.240 --> 00:36:39.240 align:middle line:90%
one micro state.

00:36:39.240 --> 00:36:44.540 align:middle line:84%
This is the one micro state
that has an energy, e.

00:36:44.540 --> 00:36:46.550 align:middle line:84%
It's depending on
the temperature

00:36:46.550 --> 00:36:52.420 align:middle line:84%
of the system and the
energy here, [? exposure. ?]

00:36:52.420 --> 00:36:56.200 align:middle line:84%
So you can see higher
energy, less probable.

00:36:56.200 --> 00:37:00.490 align:middle line:84%
And if you do chemical
combustion or a lot of Arrhenius

00:37:00.490 --> 00:37:05.200 align:middle line:84%
law you probably learned in high
school, that's the exponent.

00:37:05.200 --> 00:37:09.520 align:middle line:84%
That's coming from here,
[? personal ?] statistics.

00:37:09.520 --> 00:37:12.180 align:middle line:90%


00:37:12.180 --> 00:37:15.120 align:middle line:90%
And so here is a closed system.

00:37:15.120 --> 00:37:19.050 align:middle line:84%
What if there is a mass flow,
particle flow across system

00:37:19.050 --> 00:37:21.360 align:middle line:90%
boundary?

00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:27.160 align:middle line:84%
And in that case,
this is similar.

00:37:27.160 --> 00:37:32.730 align:middle line:84%
But there is an extra
chemical potential

00:37:32.730 --> 00:37:36.060 align:middle line:90%
uphill in the exponent.

00:37:36.060 --> 00:37:41.400 align:middle line:84%
And this is a constant
temperature, but open system.

00:37:41.400 --> 00:37:44.950 align:middle line:84%
And mu here is a
[? chemical ?] potential.

00:37:44.950 --> 00:37:48.350 align:middle line:84%
What is [? chemical ?]
potential?

00:37:48.350 --> 00:37:49.500 align:middle line:90%
Think about temperature.

00:37:49.500 --> 00:37:54.410 align:middle line:84%
Temperature is a driving
force for heat flow.

00:37:54.410 --> 00:37:58.040 align:middle line:84%
[? Chemical ?] potential
is the driving force

00:37:58.040 --> 00:38:02.780 align:middle line:90%
for mass diffusion, mass flow.

00:38:02.780 --> 00:38:08.300 align:middle line:84%
Pressure is the driving
force for mechanical motion.

00:38:08.300 --> 00:38:11.750 align:middle line:84%
Those are all thermodynamic,
intrinsic thermodynamic

00:38:11.750 --> 00:38:13.490 align:middle line:90%
quantities--

00:38:13.490 --> 00:38:17.360 align:middle line:84%
pressure, chemical
potential, temperature.

00:38:17.360 --> 00:38:19.910 align:middle line:84%
The other way to think
about the chemical potential

00:38:19.910 --> 00:38:23.570 align:middle line:84%
is it's the average
energy needed

00:38:23.570 --> 00:38:27.080 align:middle line:84%
to add a particle into a
system or take a particle out

00:38:27.080 --> 00:38:27.690 align:middle line:90%
of the system.

00:38:27.690 --> 00:38:30.630 align:middle line:90%


00:38:30.630 --> 00:38:33.330 align:middle line:84%
So first chemical potential
is the energy look at.

00:38:33.330 --> 00:38:35.640 align:middle line:90%
This is the equivalent here.

00:38:35.640 --> 00:38:41.070 align:middle line:84%
And second is driving force
for the mass transfer.

00:38:41.070 --> 00:38:47.070 align:middle line:84%
So if you do, say chemistry,
you do mass diffusion

00:38:47.070 --> 00:38:49.260 align:middle line:84%
or you do batteries,
this is a quantity

00:38:49.260 --> 00:38:53.680 align:middle line:84%
you will be dealing
with all the time.

00:38:53.680 --> 00:38:56.650 align:middle line:90%
So this is a microscopic.

00:38:56.650 --> 00:39:02.780 align:middle line:84%
And now I'm going
to apply what I just

00:39:02.780 --> 00:39:07.220 align:middle line:84%
wrote down in the previous
slide to molecules.

00:39:07.220 --> 00:39:10.910 align:middle line:90%
I have lots of molecules.

00:39:10.910 --> 00:39:15.290 align:middle line:84%
And I have an equilibrium,
temperature t.

00:39:15.290 --> 00:39:17.120 align:middle line:90%
I think the one molecule.

00:39:17.120 --> 00:39:20.810 align:middle line:84%
It has a kinetic energy, a
single, simple kinetic energy

00:39:20.810 --> 00:39:23.030 align:middle line:90%
of the molecule.

00:39:23.030 --> 00:39:27.440 align:middle line:90%
So it's 1/2 mv squared.

00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:30.530 align:middle line:84%
[INAUDIBLE], molecule
is the velocity

00:39:30.530 --> 00:39:34.280 align:middle line:84%
is the three components, the vx
square, vy square, vz square.

00:39:34.280 --> 00:39:37.180 align:middle line:90%
So that's what I have here.

00:39:37.180 --> 00:39:38.480 align:middle line:90%
And this is the energy.

00:39:38.480 --> 00:39:41.530 align:middle line:84%
Remember, in the
previous slide we

00:39:41.530 --> 00:39:43.990 align:middle line:84%
say this is now a
constant temperature

00:39:43.990 --> 00:39:47.050 align:middle line:84%
molecule in thermal equilibrium
at constant temperature.

00:39:47.050 --> 00:39:51.640 align:middle line:84%
So that's the statistical
system I'm using.

00:39:51.640 --> 00:39:56.170 align:middle line:84%
And this is the energy
that's a kinetic energy.

00:39:56.170 --> 00:40:00.520 align:middle line:84%
And here is a
probability, probability

00:40:00.520 --> 00:40:03.100 align:middle line:90%
I have a normalization factor.

00:40:03.100 --> 00:40:09.330 align:middle line:84%
So I put in the probability
of this molecule

00:40:09.330 --> 00:40:11.470 align:middle line:90%
having the velocity vx, vy, vz.

00:40:11.470 --> 00:40:14.150 align:middle line:90%


00:40:14.150 --> 00:40:18.720 align:middle line:84%
And the next step I want to
determine a, determine that pre

00:40:18.720 --> 00:40:21.110 align:middle line:90%
vector, a.

00:40:21.110 --> 00:40:21.890 align:middle line:90%
What I do?

00:40:21.890 --> 00:40:24.590 align:middle line:84%
The probability-- so
the molecule probability

00:40:24.590 --> 00:40:28.310 align:middle line:84%
is the velocity is from minus
infinity to positive infinity.

00:40:28.310 --> 00:40:32.060 align:middle line:90%
I include every possible chance.

00:40:32.060 --> 00:40:39.610 align:middle line:84%
So if I equal the
error possible chance,

00:40:39.610 --> 00:40:44.230 align:middle line:84%
that's my normal, the way
I find out this factor a.

00:40:44.230 --> 00:40:49.600 align:middle line:84%
That's all, say, velocity
from negative infinity

00:40:49.600 --> 00:40:51.370 align:middle line:90%
to positive infinite.

00:40:51.370 --> 00:40:53.770 align:middle line:90%
And this should sum up to 1.

00:40:53.770 --> 00:40:57.640 align:middle line:84%
They've got to have the
velocity in between these.

00:40:57.640 --> 00:41:02.000 align:middle line:84%
And if you do this integration,
you find your factor, a.

00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:06.200 align:middle line:90%


00:41:06.200 --> 00:41:12.490 align:middle line:84%
And this is the famous Maxwell
distribution for molecules.

00:41:12.490 --> 00:41:15.115 align:middle line:90%
STUDENT: It should be a minus.

00:41:15.115 --> 00:41:15.990 align:middle line:90%
GANG CHEN: Thank you.

00:41:15.990 --> 00:41:16.680 align:middle line:90%
Yes.

00:41:16.680 --> 00:41:17.550 align:middle line:90%
STUDENT: [INAUDIBLE]

00:41:17.550 --> 00:41:18.717 align:middle line:90%
GANG CHEN: There is a minus.

00:41:18.717 --> 00:41:20.700 align:middle line:90%
There's this minus sign here.

00:41:20.700 --> 00:41:22.930 align:middle line:90%
Thank you.

00:41:22.930 --> 00:41:26.050 align:middle line:90%
And see the other one.

00:41:26.050 --> 00:41:26.900 align:middle line:90%
Yes.

00:41:26.900 --> 00:41:31.540 align:middle line:84%
Please add [? another ?]
[? 7. ?] And here it's the same

00:41:31.540 --> 00:41:32.040 align:middle line:90%
problem.

00:41:32.040 --> 00:41:35.050 align:middle line:90%
I just copied.

00:41:35.050 --> 00:41:39.270 align:middle line:84%
So now if it's a probability,
once you have a probability,

00:41:39.270 --> 00:41:42.540 align:middle line:84%
you can calculate
your observation.

00:41:42.540 --> 00:41:46.560 align:middle line:84%
What's the average once
you have probability?

00:41:46.560 --> 00:41:49.920 align:middle line:84%
So I want to find
the average energy,

00:41:49.920 --> 00:41:53.640 align:middle line:84%
kinetic translational energy
motion, kinetic energy

00:41:53.640 --> 00:41:55.110 align:middle line:90%
of this molecule.

00:41:55.110 --> 00:42:01.650 align:middle line:84%
So here is the energy
weighed by this probability

00:42:01.650 --> 00:42:06.660 align:middle line:90%
over all possible velocities.

00:42:06.660 --> 00:42:09.900 align:middle line:90%
And again, it's an integration.

00:42:09.900 --> 00:42:13.230 align:middle line:84%
You can do yourself if
you look at a table.

00:42:13.230 --> 00:42:18.350 align:middle line:84%
And you find out is a very
simple result e equals two

00:42:18.350 --> 00:42:24.780 align:middle line:90%
thirds, 3/2 kbt [INAUDIBLE].

00:42:24.780 --> 00:42:28.320 align:middle line:90%
It's 3/2 kbt, actually.

00:42:28.320 --> 00:42:32.460 align:middle line:84%
It's a very good language
to remember, kbt.

00:42:32.460 --> 00:42:34.590 align:middle line:90%
But also it's a fundamental.

00:42:34.590 --> 00:42:36.990 align:middle line:84%
There is a fundamental
principle, equal partition

00:42:36.990 --> 00:42:42.540 align:middle line:84%
principle, which says if
your microscopic energy is

00:42:42.540 --> 00:42:45.270 align:middle line:84%
quadratic-- so if
you look at this,

00:42:45.270 --> 00:42:50.790 align:middle line:84%
kinetic energy is quadratic
in velocity and v squared.

00:42:50.790 --> 00:42:54.990 align:middle line:84%
So if energy is quadratic,
each of these quadratic terms

00:42:54.990 --> 00:42:58.770 align:middle line:84%
contribute to average
energy half kbt.

00:42:58.770 --> 00:43:00.780 align:middle line:84%
So if you look at
this molecule there,

00:43:00.780 --> 00:43:03.390 align:middle line:84%
because it has three
quadratic terms,

00:43:03.390 --> 00:43:10.140 align:middle line:84%
so each contribute one part
kbt in total [INAUDIBLE].

00:43:10.140 --> 00:43:15.940 align:middle line:84%
So this is the equal
partition principle.

00:43:15.940 --> 00:43:19.530 align:middle line:84%
And now I would like you to
get an idea of what is kbt.

00:43:19.530 --> 00:43:23.890 align:middle line:84%
This is really
something that if you

00:43:23.890 --> 00:43:27.970 align:middle line:84%
want to have microscopic
mind, you should remember.

00:43:27.970 --> 00:43:31.235 align:middle line:90%
How large is it?

00:43:31.235 --> 00:43:35.555 align:middle line:84%
kbt, 1.3 times [INAUDIBLE]
times third, 300 degrees Kelvin.

00:43:35.555 --> 00:43:38.420 align:middle line:90%


00:43:38.420 --> 00:43:41.450 align:middle line:84%
I think I forgot to
correct this again.

00:43:41.450 --> 00:43:43.670 align:middle line:90%
This should be 4, not 5--

00:43:43.670 --> 00:43:47.690 align:middle line:90%
4.14.

00:43:47.690 --> 00:43:48.890 align:middle line:90%
4.14.

00:43:48.890 --> 00:43:53.910 align:middle line:84%
And if you take a 4.14 divided
by 4, that's a big number.

00:43:53.910 --> 00:43:55.820 align:middle line:90%
Too hard to remember.

00:43:55.820 --> 00:44:00.410 align:middle line:84%
And people-- again, different
field people use different ways,

00:44:00.410 --> 00:44:02.210 align:middle line:90%
different measures.

00:44:02.210 --> 00:44:11.150 align:middle line:84%
And one often used the unit is
electron volt as an energy unit.

00:44:11.150 --> 00:44:12.920 align:middle line:90%
What is the electron volt?

00:44:12.920 --> 00:44:14.620 align:middle line:90%
You have a charge.

00:44:14.620 --> 00:44:20.330 align:middle line:84%
You apply an electric field,
one volt, say under one volt.

00:44:20.330 --> 00:44:23.450 align:middle line:84%
That's a potential how
much energy it has.

00:44:23.450 --> 00:44:28.730 align:middle line:84%
So one electron volt is 1.6,
10 to the minus 19 [? JR. ?]

00:44:28.730 --> 00:44:33.530 align:middle line:84%
So I translate this into
a room temperature one kbt

00:44:33.530 --> 00:44:36.080 align:middle line:90%
26 literally electron volts.

00:44:36.080 --> 00:44:41.930 align:middle line:90%


00:44:41.930 --> 00:44:46.760 align:middle line:84%
Now, think about if this
is the average energy

00:44:46.760 --> 00:44:50.870 align:middle line:84%
of the molecule, what's
how fast they are moving?

00:44:50.870 --> 00:44:53.060 align:middle line:84%
So the molecule
moving in this room.

00:44:53.060 --> 00:44:58.280 align:middle line:84%
You can go to estimate, because
this energy equals 1/2 mv

00:44:58.280 --> 00:44:59.090 align:middle line:90%
squared.

00:44:59.090 --> 00:45:04.400 align:middle line:84%
So you can go to estimate the
velocity of the molecule, one

00:45:04.400 --> 00:45:05.330 align:middle line:90%
half cancel.

00:45:05.330 --> 00:45:06.470 align:middle line:90%
You do the math.

00:45:06.470 --> 00:45:10.140 align:middle line:90%
I took the oxygen as an example.

00:45:10.140 --> 00:45:15.090 align:middle line:84%
And all the number of
oxygen atomic number is 8.

00:45:15.090 --> 00:45:17.180 align:middle line:90%
So it's 16 neutron proton.

00:45:17.180 --> 00:45:22.490 align:middle line:84%
And each of the proton
mass is 1.677 plus 27.

00:45:22.490 --> 00:45:27.260 align:middle line:84%
So number is about
200 meter per second.

00:45:27.260 --> 00:45:32.270 align:middle line:84%
Depends on whether it's a light
molecule, heavy molecules.

00:45:32.270 --> 00:45:37.550 align:middle line:84%
So those are the microscopic
molecular picture.

00:45:37.550 --> 00:45:40.710 align:middle line:90%
That's about molecules.

00:45:40.710 --> 00:45:44.360 align:middle line:90%


00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:46.230 align:middle line:90%
Let's think about the electrons.

00:45:46.230 --> 00:45:51.320 align:middle line:84%
Molecules, what we see, we did
not do anything quantum side.

00:45:51.320 --> 00:45:56.300 align:middle line:84%
The Maxwell distribution
is a classical statistical

00:45:56.300 --> 00:45:58.680 align:middle line:90%
thermodynamics.

00:45:58.680 --> 00:46:03.010 align:middle line:84%
Now, when I do electrons,
the quantum mechanics

00:46:03.010 --> 00:46:04.750 align:middle line:90%
sometimes is very important.

00:46:04.750 --> 00:46:08.350 align:middle line:90%
So it's the more common picture.

00:46:08.350 --> 00:46:11.410 align:middle line:84%
From quantum
mechanics, we learn--

00:46:11.410 --> 00:46:14.410 align:middle line:84%
you have a physics
before, basic idea.

00:46:14.410 --> 00:46:17.950 align:middle line:84%
I'm sure you all heard about
energy levels of quantum

00:46:17.950 --> 00:46:21.070 align:middle line:90%
mechanics.

00:46:21.070 --> 00:46:27.820 align:middle line:84%
And some of you
may still remember,

00:46:27.820 --> 00:46:31.450 align:middle line:84%
if you have quantum
mechanical state,

00:46:31.450 --> 00:46:35.530 align:middle line:90%
you can only have one electron--

00:46:35.530 --> 00:46:37.400 align:middle line:90%
Pauli exclusion principle.

00:46:37.400 --> 00:46:45.080 align:middle line:90%


00:46:45.080 --> 00:46:48.710 align:middle line:84%
And the quantum
mechanics, actually here

00:46:48.710 --> 00:46:52.250 align:middle line:84%
I have listed the
quantum Einstein

00:46:52.250 --> 00:46:55.050 align:middle line:90%
relation that gives the energy.

00:46:55.050 --> 00:46:56.770 align:middle line:84%
This actually
started from photons.

00:46:56.770 --> 00:47:00.830 align:middle line:84%
So next slide I have more
energy related to frequency

00:47:00.830 --> 00:47:03.590 align:middle line:84%
of the photon and
the momentum relates

00:47:03.590 --> 00:47:05.090 align:middle line:90%
to wavelengths of the photon.

00:47:05.090 --> 00:47:10.040 align:middle line:84%
So that's the so-called the
Planck Einstein relation.

00:47:10.040 --> 00:47:13.340 align:middle line:84%
And again, this
is another number.

00:47:13.340 --> 00:47:15.230 align:middle line:84%
If you think about the
quantum, you always

00:47:15.230 --> 00:47:20.930 align:middle line:84%
see h Planck constant at
6.6 10 to the minus 34

00:47:20.930 --> 00:47:22.846 align:middle line:90%
[? jar ?] [INAUDIBLE].

00:47:22.846 --> 00:47:26.570 align:middle line:90%


00:47:26.570 --> 00:47:32.630 align:middle line:84%
Now I'm going to look at one
quantum mechanical state.

00:47:32.630 --> 00:47:35.960 align:middle line:84%
And this quantum
mechanical state

00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:39.380 align:middle line:84%
can have maximum
of one electron.

00:47:39.380 --> 00:47:40.850 align:middle line:90%
It can have 0 electron.

00:47:40.850 --> 00:47:43.460 align:middle line:90%
You have one electron.

00:47:43.460 --> 00:47:45.330 align:middle line:84%
And this quantum
state has an energy,

00:47:45.330 --> 00:47:50.180 align:middle line:84%
e, quantum mechanically
allowable energy.

00:47:50.180 --> 00:47:54.140 align:middle line:84%
When the electron is there,
this state has energy, e.

00:47:54.140 --> 00:47:58.160 align:middle line:84%
When it's empty, the electron,
the actual energy of the system

00:47:58.160 --> 00:47:58.680 align:middle line:90%
is 0.

00:47:58.680 --> 00:48:03.806 align:middle line:84%
But I only have
two possibilities.

00:48:03.806 --> 00:48:06.380 align:middle line:90%


00:48:06.380 --> 00:48:08.760 align:middle line:84%
So I have-- there's
two possibilities.

00:48:08.760 --> 00:48:10.190 align:middle line:90%
I sum this up.

00:48:10.190 --> 00:48:15.080 align:middle line:84%
I want to find this a, the
difference between the molecule

00:48:15.080 --> 00:48:16.460 align:middle line:90%
I did before.

00:48:16.460 --> 00:48:20.720 align:middle line:84%
And here, for molecule velocity
I say, OK, from minus infinity

00:48:20.720 --> 00:48:24.020 align:middle line:84%
to plus infinity, I
include everything.

00:48:24.020 --> 00:48:25.970 align:middle line:84%
But for the electron
here, I only

00:48:25.970 --> 00:48:29.890 align:middle line:90%
have 0 electron or 1 electron.

00:48:29.890 --> 00:48:34.630 align:middle line:84%
So I sum this up to
what I will find a.

00:48:34.630 --> 00:48:39.120 align:middle line:84%
I'm not going to
detail the math.

00:48:39.120 --> 00:48:42.450 align:middle line:84%
So from the previous
relation, I found a.

00:48:42.450 --> 00:48:44.760 align:middle line:90%
And now I give you an average.

00:48:44.760 --> 00:48:47.820 align:middle line:84%
Again, I can give you
the average energy.

00:48:47.820 --> 00:48:52.410 align:middle line:84%
Because if I do
observation, it's 0 or e.

00:48:52.410 --> 00:48:54.270 align:middle line:84%
And if I do a lot
of observation,

00:48:54.270 --> 00:48:57.720 align:middle line:84%
it's a equilibrium
temperature t,

00:48:57.720 --> 00:49:01.320 align:middle line:84%
what's the average
time, average energy,

00:49:01.320 --> 00:49:04.470 align:middle line:90%
or average number of electrons?

00:49:04.470 --> 00:49:07.440 align:middle line:84%
Each individual observation
could be 0 or 1.

00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:11.730 align:middle line:84%
But there is an
average possibility.

00:49:11.730 --> 00:49:15.390 align:middle line:84%
So if I look at
the average, again,

00:49:15.390 --> 00:49:17.940 align:middle line:90%
say this is an n could be 0, 1.

00:49:17.940 --> 00:49:22.300 align:middle line:84%
And they sum of two
Fermi-Dirac distribution.

00:49:22.300 --> 00:49:27.250 align:middle line:90%


00:49:27.250 --> 00:49:28.330 align:middle line:90%
You look at that.

00:49:28.330 --> 00:49:31.160 align:middle line:84%
What's the range of this
[? F, ?] the average?

00:49:31.160 --> 00:49:36.560 align:middle line:90%


00:49:36.560 --> 00:49:39.441 align:middle line:90%
STUDENT: [INAUDIBLE]

00:49:39.441 --> 00:49:40.670 align:middle line:90%
0 to 1.

00:49:40.670 --> 00:49:43.040 align:middle line:90%
That's so they can't be above 1.

00:49:43.040 --> 00:49:45.290 align:middle line:90%
Its maximum is the 1.

00:49:45.290 --> 00:49:46.650 align:middle line:90%
Minimum 0.

00:49:46.650 --> 00:49:48.710 align:middle line:90%
So it's between 0 and 1.

00:49:48.710 --> 00:49:53.180 align:middle line:84%
And then you plot this
depend on the temperature.

00:49:53.180 --> 00:49:58.760 align:middle line:84%
And it depends on whether
the energy of this level

00:49:58.760 --> 00:50:04.530 align:middle line:84%
is above the chemical potential
or below the chemical potential.

00:50:04.530 --> 00:50:08.270 align:middle line:84%
The chemical
potential is they say,

00:50:08.270 --> 00:50:12.330 align:middle line:84%
we said before, now you can
think of this as a one quantum

00:50:12.330 --> 00:50:15.570 align:middle line:84%
state that the open state
system, the electron can come in

00:50:15.570 --> 00:50:16.950 align:middle line:90%
and goes out.

00:50:16.950 --> 00:50:20.310 align:middle line:84%
The chemical potential is
what's the average energy

00:50:20.310 --> 00:50:24.210 align:middle line:84%
you need to take the electron
in or the electron out--

00:50:24.210 --> 00:50:27.210 align:middle line:84%
take the electron out
for put electron in.

00:50:27.210 --> 00:50:30.440 align:middle line:84%
So depends on whether
it's above or below.

00:50:30.440 --> 00:50:33.180 align:middle line:84%
You can say it's close
to 1 or close to 0.

00:50:33.180 --> 00:50:37.890 align:middle line:84%
Very narrowly distributed
near the chemical potential.

00:50:37.890 --> 00:50:41.280 align:middle line:84%
And in fact, if your
[INAUDIBLE] is 0,

00:50:41.280 --> 00:50:43.860 align:middle line:90%
this will be a sharp position.

00:50:43.860 --> 00:50:47.310 align:middle line:84%
At the chemical potential
above is 1, here below.

00:50:47.310 --> 00:50:51.450 align:middle line:90%
Let's say above 0 and below 1.

00:50:51.450 --> 00:50:55.020 align:middle line:84%
And the chemical potential
at 0 temperature,

00:50:55.020 --> 00:50:58.680 align:middle line:84%
there is a special
name people give often

00:50:58.680 --> 00:51:01.020 align:middle line:90%
called that Fermi level.

00:51:01.020 --> 00:51:04.000 align:middle line:84%
But in a lot of
different fields,

00:51:04.000 --> 00:51:08.260 align:middle line:84%
sometimes people just call
Fermi level for energy transfer.

00:51:08.260 --> 00:51:10.130 align:middle line:90%
It's terminology convention.

00:51:10.130 --> 00:51:14.450 align:middle line:90%


00:51:14.450 --> 00:51:16.910 align:middle line:90%
So that's for electron.

00:51:16.910 --> 00:51:20.120 align:middle line:90%
Now we're going to lecture two.

00:51:20.120 --> 00:51:21.920 align:middle line:90%
We talk about molecule.

00:51:21.920 --> 00:51:23.690 align:middle line:90%
We'll talk about electron.

00:51:23.690 --> 00:51:26.030 align:middle line:84%
Next I'm going to talk
about electromagnetic wave,

00:51:26.030 --> 00:51:27.830 align:middle line:90%
the photons.

00:51:27.830 --> 00:51:37.400 align:middle line:84%
I mentioned before, the Planck
Einstein relationship is really

00:51:37.400 --> 00:51:38.630 align:middle line:90%
looking into photon.

00:51:38.630 --> 00:51:42.440 align:middle line:84%
And later on was generalized
for any material wave.

00:51:42.440 --> 00:51:49.850 align:middle line:84%
And so what we have is if
there is electromagnetic wave

00:51:49.850 --> 00:51:53.480 align:middle line:84%
at a certain frequency,
mu, what Planck

00:51:53.480 --> 00:51:58.670 align:middle line:84%
found is that the energy
of that mu, the quantum

00:51:58.670 --> 00:51:59.960 align:middle line:90%
mechanical state--

00:51:59.960 --> 00:52:02.120 align:middle line:84%
at the time there was
no quantum mechanics.

00:52:02.120 --> 00:52:06.520 align:middle line:84%
So electromagnetic
mode, of specific mode,

00:52:06.520 --> 00:52:10.010 align:middle line:90%
the energy has to be quantized.

00:52:10.010 --> 00:52:15.320 align:middle line:84%
And basically energy
quanta is [? hmu. ?]

00:52:15.320 --> 00:52:18.530 align:middle line:84%
And this other
quantum [INAUDIBLE]

00:52:18.530 --> 00:52:24.380 align:middle line:84%
was called a [? photon. ?]
And when Einstein came in,

00:52:24.380 --> 00:52:29.750 align:middle line:84%
he's saying that the quanta
not only just have the wave,

00:52:29.750 --> 00:52:32.270 align:middle line:90%
but also has a momentum.

00:52:32.270 --> 00:52:36.470 align:middle line:84%
So this is where the wave
particle duality came from.

00:52:36.470 --> 00:52:40.670 align:middle line:84%
So the momentum of
the quanta is related

00:52:40.670 --> 00:52:47.630 align:middle line:84%
to the wavelength of the
wave, and again, the edge.

00:52:47.630 --> 00:52:53.450 align:middle line:84%
And so each quantum
state, the energy

00:52:53.450 --> 00:52:57.140 align:middle line:84%
can only be multiple
of the edge mu.

00:52:57.140 --> 00:52:59.270 align:middle line:84%
Normally when we think
about the continuum

00:52:59.270 --> 00:53:01.530 align:middle line:90%
mechanics can be any value.

00:53:01.530 --> 00:53:07.350 align:middle line:84%
But the important difference
is that the energy

00:53:07.350 --> 00:53:09.610 align:middle line:90%
could be only multiple.

00:53:09.610 --> 00:53:12.510 align:middle line:90%
So n is now integer.

00:53:12.510 --> 00:53:14.800 align:middle line:90%
And it has a one half.

00:53:14.800 --> 00:53:16.680 align:middle line:84%
That's also called
this one half.

00:53:16.680 --> 00:53:17.920 align:middle line:90%
Normal is not important.

00:53:17.920 --> 00:53:19.680 align:middle line:90%
It's called 0 point energy.

00:53:19.680 --> 00:53:24.000 align:middle line:84%
And it's really-- if you still
recall from quantum mechanics,

00:53:24.000 --> 00:53:26.970 align:middle line:84%
that's the so-called the
Heisenberg Uncertainty

00:53:26.970 --> 00:53:28.240 align:middle line:90%
Principle requirement.

00:53:28.240 --> 00:53:32.070 align:middle line:90%
So this is 0 point energy.

00:53:32.070 --> 00:53:33.180 align:middle line:90%
Normally it's not.

00:53:33.180 --> 00:53:34.870 align:middle line:90%
So I'm not going to give much.

00:53:34.870 --> 00:53:37.550 align:middle line:90%


00:53:37.550 --> 00:53:39.650 align:middle line:90%
So that's a photon.

00:53:39.650 --> 00:53:45.060 align:middle line:84%
Now I'm going to-- it
turns out the photon,

00:53:45.060 --> 00:53:47.840 align:middle line:84%
you can think of this as
the electromagnetic wave.

00:53:47.840 --> 00:53:49.950 align:middle line:84%
Now I'm going to talk
about different waves.

00:53:49.950 --> 00:53:53.850 align:middle line:84%
That's the lattice wave,
the atomic vibration.

00:53:53.850 --> 00:53:55.940 align:middle line:84%
The [INAUDIBLE]
vibration now, you

00:53:55.940 --> 00:53:59.180 align:middle line:84%
can think about starting
with classical mechanics.

00:53:59.180 --> 00:54:02.720 align:middle line:84%
If you have a mass
spring system,

00:54:02.720 --> 00:54:06.800 align:middle line:84%
the fundamental
natural frequency

00:54:06.800 --> 00:54:08.570 align:middle line:90%
is square root of k over m.

00:54:08.570 --> 00:54:11.570 align:middle line:90%


00:54:11.570 --> 00:54:14.240 align:middle line:84%
And, of course, in
classical mechanics,

00:54:14.240 --> 00:54:16.670 align:middle line:84%
we see the energy is
related to the amplitude

00:54:16.670 --> 00:54:19.880 align:middle line:90%
of the wave, the velocity.

00:54:19.880 --> 00:54:23.990 align:middle line:84%
And once you go to quantum,
it turns out this way,

00:54:23.990 --> 00:54:27.290 align:middle line:84%
the energy cannot be any value,
same as the electromagnetic

00:54:27.290 --> 00:54:28.520 align:middle line:90%
wave.

00:54:28.520 --> 00:54:32.460 align:middle line:84%
And the energy can
only be multiples--

00:54:32.460 --> 00:54:38.040 align:middle line:84%
same, you can say
multiples of [? SU. ?]

00:54:38.040 --> 00:54:41.430 align:middle line:84%
And now there was
an analogy made

00:54:41.430 --> 00:54:45.570 align:middle line:90%
for this compound of vibration.

00:54:45.570 --> 00:54:49.990 align:middle line:90%
That analogy is [INAUDIBLE].

00:54:49.990 --> 00:54:54.720 align:middle line:84%
Electromagnetic wave, the basic
energy quanta is the photon.

00:54:54.720 --> 00:54:57.960 align:middle line:84%
That is atomic
vibration or the energy

00:54:57.960 --> 00:55:02.620 align:middle line:90%
based energy quanta is photon.

00:55:02.620 --> 00:55:06.610 align:middle line:84%
OK, so what's the
statistic they obeyed?

00:55:06.610 --> 00:55:09.770 align:middle line:84%
At a certain quantum state,
if you think about electrons,

00:55:09.770 --> 00:55:13.780 align:middle line:90%
could be 0 and 1.

00:55:13.780 --> 00:55:15.520 align:middle line:90%
Maximum is 1.

00:55:15.520 --> 00:55:19.540 align:middle line:84%
And here, at the mole,
at this frequency,

00:55:19.540 --> 00:55:23.130 align:middle line:90%
it could be 0, 1, to infinite.

00:55:23.130 --> 00:55:24.420 align:middle line:90%
So that's a difference.

00:55:24.420 --> 00:55:27.000 align:middle line:90%
Electron, 0, 1.

00:55:27.000 --> 00:55:31.230 align:middle line:84%
And here, it could be any
number of integer numbers.

00:55:31.230 --> 00:55:35.670 align:middle line:84%
So I need to find the
distribution average

00:55:35.670 --> 00:55:41.240 align:middle line:84%
number of photon or [INAUDIBLE]
if I have a equilibrium system.

00:55:41.240 --> 00:55:47.540 align:middle line:90%


00:55:47.540 --> 00:55:49.880 align:middle line:90%
Do the same thing.

00:55:49.880 --> 00:55:52.010 align:middle line:90%
I have the probability.

00:55:52.010 --> 00:55:57.950 align:middle line:84%
And now, if I have n
photon or [INAUDIBLE]

00:55:57.950 --> 00:56:02.630 align:middle line:84%
in this microstate, the
quantum mechanical state that

00:56:02.630 --> 00:56:07.350 align:middle line:84%
has this specific frequency,
that's the probability.

00:56:07.350 --> 00:56:11.000 align:middle line:84%
I sum this up from a
equals 0 to infinite.

00:56:11.000 --> 00:56:13.160 align:middle line:90%
That still should give me 1.

00:56:13.160 --> 00:56:16.340 align:middle line:84%
You have either 0 or
1, or infinite number,

00:56:16.340 --> 00:56:18.650 align:middle line:84%
or the in between,
somewhere in between.

00:56:18.650 --> 00:56:20.630 align:middle line:90%
So sum up, I have one.

00:56:20.630 --> 00:56:21.470 align:middle line:90%
I will determine a.

00:56:21.470 --> 00:56:26.570 align:middle line:84%
And this a, from this a, I
go to find the average again.

00:56:26.570 --> 00:56:31.580 align:middle line:84%
Once I find the probability, I
find the average number same way

00:56:31.580 --> 00:56:33.560 align:middle line:90%
as I did for electron.

00:56:33.560 --> 00:56:42.530 align:middle line:84%
And this average number now is
the Bose-Einstein distribution.

00:56:42.530 --> 00:56:44.840 align:middle line:84%
And this Bose-Einstein
distribution,

00:56:44.840 --> 00:56:48.140 align:middle line:84%
if you compare it with
the previous Fermi-Dirac

00:56:48.140 --> 00:56:50.930 align:middle line:84%
distribution, the
only thing changed

00:56:50.930 --> 00:56:55.580 align:middle line:84%
is a plus sign now
goes to minus sign.

00:56:55.580 --> 00:56:58.520 align:middle line:84%
And because of that, it's
no longer between 0 to 1.

00:56:58.520 --> 00:57:02.680 align:middle line:90%
It's between 0 to infinite.

00:57:02.680 --> 00:57:07.900 align:middle line:84%
And in fact, for
photon and photon,

00:57:07.900 --> 00:57:10.310 align:middle line:84%
because the number
is not conserved.

00:57:10.310 --> 00:57:12.970 align:middle line:84%
It's not like the electron
is conserved [INAUDIBLE].

00:57:12.970 --> 00:57:16.000 align:middle line:84%
So chemical potential
concept is not [INAUDIBLE]--

00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:17.080 align:middle line:90%
is not a good one.

00:57:17.080 --> 00:57:18.710 align:middle line:90%
So that's a 0.

00:57:18.710 --> 00:57:20.320 align:middle line:90%
We take it to 0.

00:57:20.320 --> 00:57:25.615 align:middle line:84%
And this is the distribution for
the Bose-Einstein distribution.

00:57:25.615 --> 00:57:31.000 align:middle line:84%
STUDENT: What's the reason
for setting mu at 0?

00:57:31.000 --> 00:57:34.330 align:middle line:84%
GANG CHEN: It's not
a conserved quantity.

00:57:34.330 --> 00:57:37.990 align:middle line:84%
It's, say, when we talk of
mass transfer particle, that's

00:57:37.990 --> 00:57:39.790 align:middle line:90%
a fixed number.

00:57:39.790 --> 00:57:41.920 align:middle line:84%
Total number either
going out or going in.

00:57:41.920 --> 00:57:43.960 align:middle line:90%
But that's a conserved number.

00:57:43.960 --> 00:57:46.910 align:middle line:90%
Here is another number.

00:57:46.910 --> 00:57:49.040 align:middle line:84%
But there are
actually-- see, later

00:57:49.040 --> 00:57:52.790 align:middle line:84%
on when we talk about the
solar cell, you'll find out

00:57:52.790 --> 00:57:56.040 align:middle line:84%
there is a quasi Fermi
level getting into here.

00:57:56.040 --> 00:58:00.270 align:middle line:84%
So it's actually a
very deep similarity.

00:58:00.270 --> 00:58:01.870 align:middle line:84%
So this is just a
simple argument.

00:58:01.870 --> 00:58:10.640 align:middle line:90%


00:58:10.640 --> 00:58:16.580 align:middle line:84%
That's about-- now, in this
time frame, like I said,

00:58:16.580 --> 00:58:19.760 align:middle line:84%
you're probably familiar with
the classical thermodynamic.

00:58:19.760 --> 00:58:22.810 align:middle line:84%
You're now familiar
with statistical side.

00:58:22.810 --> 00:58:24.170 align:middle line:90%
Like you just take it.

00:58:24.170 --> 00:58:26.720 align:middle line:84%
This is all the
result we'll be using

00:58:26.720 --> 00:58:28.780 align:middle line:90%
when they get into [INAUDIBLE].

00:58:28.780 --> 00:58:31.910 align:middle line:84%
Then microscopically we have
[INAUDIBLE] distribution.

00:58:31.910 --> 00:58:34.830 align:middle line:84%
We have Fermi-Dirac
distribution for electron.

00:58:34.830 --> 00:58:38.180 align:middle line:84%
We have Bose-Einstein
distribution for phonon photon.

00:58:38.180 --> 00:58:40.430 align:middle line:90%
That's what you need to know.

00:58:40.430 --> 00:58:48.200 align:middle line:84%
And what we need, I'm
going to summarize next.

00:58:48.200 --> 00:58:50.090 align:middle line:90%
This is the heat transfer.

00:58:50.090 --> 00:58:52.430 align:middle line:90%
Before it was thermodynamics.

00:58:52.430 --> 00:58:59.250 align:middle line:84%
Now, heat transfer, again,
you take the 2005, 2006.

00:58:59.250 --> 00:59:01.040 align:middle line:90%
This is a very--

00:59:01.040 --> 00:59:04.880 align:middle line:90%
should be very familiar.

00:59:04.880 --> 00:59:08.610 align:middle line:84%
We have three modes of
heat transfer-- conduction,

00:59:08.610 --> 00:59:10.860 align:middle line:90%
convection, and radiation.

00:59:10.860 --> 00:59:16.950 align:middle line:84%
And describing the conduction
is a Fourier law of diffusion.

00:59:16.950 --> 00:59:22.560 align:middle line:84%
So the heat transfer rate,
here for the rate in watts,

00:59:22.560 --> 00:59:24.730 align:middle line:84%
it's proportional to
the area, proportional

00:59:24.730 --> 00:59:26.790 align:middle line:90%
to temperature gradient.

00:59:26.790 --> 00:59:31.020 align:middle line:84%
A proportionality constant
is the thermal conductivity.

00:59:31.020 --> 00:59:33.630 align:middle line:90%
And that's a material property.

00:59:33.630 --> 00:59:37.830 align:middle line:84%
Normally, we think of it
as a material property.

00:59:37.830 --> 00:59:42.120 align:middle line:84%
And the negative sign actually
take care of the second law,

00:59:42.120 --> 00:59:45.300 align:middle line:84%
says temperature, heat will
flow from high temperature

00:59:45.300 --> 00:59:48.370 align:middle line:90%
to low temperature.

00:59:48.370 --> 00:59:52.990 align:middle line:84%
And you can do that. from
watt you can do flux.

00:59:52.990 --> 00:59:55.240 align:middle line:90%
That's a per unit area based.

00:59:55.240 --> 00:59:58.330 align:middle line:90%
So just normalize the area.

00:59:58.330 --> 01:00:02.320 align:middle line:84%
Or you generalize
it to 3 dimension

01:00:02.320 --> 01:00:05.820 align:middle line:84%
rather than writing
into one dimension.

01:00:05.820 --> 01:00:09.030 align:middle line:90%
So that's [INAUDIBLE].

01:00:09.030 --> 01:00:17.120 align:middle line:84%
And convection is we have
fluid flow in the surrounding

01:00:17.120 --> 01:00:21.290 align:middle line:90%
of a heated or cold surface.

01:00:21.290 --> 01:00:26.360 align:middle line:84%
The heat transfer between
the surface and the fluid

01:00:26.360 --> 01:00:29.420 align:middle line:84%
is proportional to the
temperature difference

01:00:29.420 --> 01:00:31.280 align:middle line:90%
of the wall and the fluid.

01:00:31.280 --> 01:00:33.230 align:middle line:84%
This fluids are
actually transition.

01:00:33.230 --> 01:00:34.760 align:middle line:84%
The temperature
goes from the wall

01:00:34.760 --> 01:00:41.150 align:middle line:84%
to gradually to the center
of the fluid or ambient.

01:00:41.150 --> 01:00:45.290 align:middle line:84%
And the proportionality
constant here

01:00:45.290 --> 01:00:50.960 align:middle line:84%
is h, the heat
transfer coefficient.

01:00:50.960 --> 01:00:56.030 align:middle line:90%
But h is a flow dependent.

01:00:56.030 --> 01:00:58.680 align:middle line:90%
It's not a mature property.

01:00:58.680 --> 01:01:02.870 align:middle line:84%
It depends on how
fast the fluid flow

01:01:02.870 --> 01:01:05.750 align:middle line:90%
and depends on the geometry.

01:01:05.750 --> 01:01:11.540 align:middle line:84%
So this is a big
topic in 2005, 2006.

01:01:11.540 --> 01:01:15.500 align:middle line:84%
And we know there is a natural
convection, forced convection,

01:01:15.500 --> 01:01:21.290 align:middle line:84%
just in terms of the
terminology there.

01:01:21.290 --> 01:01:25.670 align:middle line:84%
So those are conduction
and convection.

01:01:25.670 --> 01:01:28.970 align:middle line:84%
And, of course, the
thermal of heat transfer

01:01:28.970 --> 01:01:33.780 align:middle line:90%
is radiation, thermal radiation.

01:01:33.780 --> 01:01:41.150 align:middle line:84%
Thermal radiation for
blackbody one single surface

01:01:41.150 --> 01:01:43.880 align:middle line:90%
or black object.

01:01:43.880 --> 01:01:49.460 align:middle line:84%
The emission is given by
the Stefan-Boltzmann law

01:01:49.460 --> 01:01:53.570 align:middle line:84%
as the proportional to
temperature force power.

01:01:53.570 --> 01:01:57.220 align:middle line:84%
The proportionality constant
is Stefan-Boltzmann constant.

01:01:57.220 --> 01:02:02.030 align:middle line:90%
So this is a for black object.

01:02:02.030 --> 01:02:04.260 align:middle line:90%
A real object is not black.

01:02:04.260 --> 01:02:07.490 align:middle line:84%
So we use a emissivity
to characterize it.

01:02:07.490 --> 01:02:11.850 align:middle line:84%
And we'll discuss some
more down the road.

01:02:11.850 --> 01:02:16.650 align:middle line:84%
Now, if I have two objects,
exchange heat, in this case,

01:02:16.650 --> 01:02:18.230 align:middle line:90%
it could be vacuum.

01:02:18.230 --> 01:02:20.990 align:middle line:84%
That's the difference
of radiation

01:02:20.990 --> 01:02:24.470 align:middle line:84%
compared to conduction
and convection, which

01:02:24.470 --> 01:02:25.560 align:middle line:90%
requires a media.

01:02:25.560 --> 01:02:29.680 align:middle line:84%
And here, the heat transfer
is by electromagnetic waves.

01:02:29.680 --> 01:02:36.020 align:middle line:84%
So I wrote a simple form of
relating the heat transfer

01:02:36.020 --> 01:02:38.840 align:middle line:84%
is the [INAUDIBLE]
to the fourth power.

01:02:38.840 --> 01:02:41.630 align:middle line:84%
And remember here, you
have to use a Kelvin, not

01:02:41.630 --> 01:02:43.070 align:middle line:90%
degree Celsius.

01:02:43.070 --> 01:02:45.530 align:middle line:84%
Look at the units
and so on in Kelvin.

01:02:45.530 --> 01:02:50.250 align:middle line:84%
And if the object is not
black, we use the emissivity.

01:02:50.250 --> 01:02:52.730 align:middle line:84%
And here is the factor
between two surfaces,

01:02:52.730 --> 01:02:55.010 align:middle line:84%
because the two surfaces
may be different.

01:02:55.010 --> 01:02:59.100 align:middle line:84%
Like I said, we'll discuss
more down the road.

01:02:59.100 --> 01:03:02.670 align:middle line:84%
So those are three modes
of heat [? conduction. ?]

01:03:02.670 --> 01:03:08.470 align:middle line:84%
And in this course, we'll
talk more on conduction

01:03:08.470 --> 01:03:11.710 align:middle line:84%
and we'll talk
more on radiation.

01:03:11.710 --> 01:03:13.090 align:middle line:90%
You have learned a lot.

01:03:13.090 --> 01:03:14.960 align:middle line:84%
Some of you learned
a lot of convection.

01:03:14.960 --> 01:03:19.510 align:middle line:90%
So that's probably fear.

01:03:19.510 --> 01:03:23.530 align:middle line:84%
Now, let's think a little
bit more on conduction.

01:03:23.530 --> 01:03:26.740 align:middle line:84%
If I have a one dimensional
multi generation inside,

01:03:26.740 --> 01:03:30.280 align:middle line:84%
I can say heat flow is constant
and secure is constant.

01:03:30.280 --> 01:03:32.090 align:middle line:90%
You go back to the Fourier law.

01:03:32.090 --> 01:03:33.110 align:middle line:90%
You integrate it.

01:03:33.110 --> 01:03:35.650 align:middle line:84%
You find out that the heat
transfer between the two

01:03:35.650 --> 01:03:40.420 align:middle line:84%
points from this to the
other side at steady state

01:03:40.420 --> 01:03:45.250 align:middle line:84%
is proportional to thermal
conductivity area inversely

01:03:45.250 --> 01:03:47.080 align:middle line:90%
proportional to the length.

01:03:47.080 --> 01:03:50.470 align:middle line:84%
So if you want to do thermal
isolation, what do you do?

01:03:50.470 --> 01:03:52.720 align:middle line:90%
You use a long object.

01:03:52.720 --> 01:03:55.870 align:middle line:90%
You use a small cross section.

01:03:55.870 --> 01:03:58.100 align:middle line:90%
That's the thermal isolation.

01:03:58.100 --> 01:04:02.320 align:middle line:84%
A lot of times when you
design a thermal system,

01:04:02.320 --> 01:04:07.030 align:middle line:84%
not only heat getting in,
you also want to isolate it.

01:04:07.030 --> 01:04:14.890 align:middle line:84%
And we can combine all this
right into thermal resistance.

01:04:14.890 --> 01:04:16.570 align:middle line:90%
That's just a definition.

01:04:16.570 --> 01:04:20.230 align:middle line:84%
Because this way, it looks very
similar to electrical circuit

01:04:20.230 --> 01:04:25.450 align:middle line:84%
where your driving voltage is
now the temperature difference

01:04:25.450 --> 01:04:30.680 align:middle line:84%
and your current is the heat
current and your resistance.

01:04:30.680 --> 01:04:35.890 align:middle line:84%
So you can use the same way as
you do circuit analysis if you

01:04:35.890 --> 01:04:37.690 align:middle line:90%
know the thermal resistance.

01:04:37.690 --> 01:04:40.660 align:middle line:84%
This is for different
geometries, different.

01:04:40.660 --> 01:04:45.940 align:middle line:84%
And even for convection,
you can express,

01:04:45.940 --> 01:04:48.200 align:middle line:90%
you go to do thermal resistance.

01:04:48.200 --> 01:04:52.270 align:middle line:84%
So you can build
some resistor network

01:04:52.270 --> 01:04:56.540 align:middle line:90%
to do some simple heat transfer.

01:04:56.540 --> 01:05:02.310 align:middle line:84%
And another thing that's
important to keep in mind

01:05:02.310 --> 01:05:03.690 align:middle line:90%
is the order of magnitude.

01:05:03.690 --> 01:05:05.250 align:middle line:90%
What are the good conductors?

01:05:05.250 --> 01:05:06.990 align:middle line:90%
What are good insulators?

01:05:06.990 --> 01:05:11.200 align:middle line:84%
And the best conductor
turns out is diamond.

01:05:11.200 --> 01:05:11.700 align:middle line:90%
Why?

01:05:11.700 --> 01:05:13.930 align:middle line:84%
That's because the
bumping, the spring.

01:05:13.930 --> 01:05:18.210 align:middle line:84%
So in this case is
the wave, atomic wave

01:05:18.210 --> 01:05:20.750 align:middle line:90%
that carries the heat.

01:05:20.750 --> 01:05:24.320 align:middle line:84%
So if the bonding between
the atoms is strong,

01:05:24.320 --> 01:05:27.200 align:middle line:90%
the spring constant is large.

01:05:27.200 --> 01:05:28.760 align:middle line:90%
The velocity is large.

01:05:28.760 --> 01:05:31.790 align:middle line:84%
So that's why diamond
is a good conductor.

01:05:31.790 --> 01:05:34.790 align:middle line:90%
And metals are not that good.

01:05:34.790 --> 01:05:36.770 align:middle line:90%
Metals are by electrons.

01:05:36.770 --> 01:05:41.840 align:middle line:84%
And insulators, you can see the
wood, amorphous material, pores,

01:05:41.840 --> 01:05:44.450 align:middle line:84%
those are poor
thermal conductors

01:05:44.450 --> 01:05:47.420 align:middle line:84%
because the atomic
arrangement is random.

01:05:47.420 --> 01:05:50.840 align:middle line:84%
And that randomness
makes the wave harder

01:05:50.840 --> 01:05:54.390 align:middle line:90%
to propagate in the material.

01:05:54.390 --> 01:06:00.390 align:middle line:90%
So this is, again, macroscopic.

01:06:00.390 --> 01:06:05.940 align:middle line:84%
Now I'm going to also give you
the other view, microscopic

01:06:05.940 --> 01:06:13.730 align:middle line:84%
of heat transfer, and
the kinetic picture.

01:06:13.730 --> 01:06:18.120 align:middle line:84%
So what happens, how heat
really is conducting?

01:06:18.120 --> 01:06:21.180 align:middle line:90%
Let's think about the molecules.

01:06:21.180 --> 01:06:27.210 align:middle line:84%
And the molecules,
let's say we have a box.

01:06:27.210 --> 01:06:28.320 align:middle line:90%
And one side is hot.

01:06:28.320 --> 01:06:29.500 align:middle line:90%
The other side is cold.

01:06:29.500 --> 01:06:31.420 align:middle line:90%
Let's forget about convection.

01:06:31.420 --> 01:06:34.410 align:middle line:84%
How quick it goes from
one [INAUDIBLE] side,

01:06:34.410 --> 01:06:38.480 align:middle line:84%
we add the molecule
to the cosine.

01:06:38.480 --> 01:06:41.840 align:middle line:84%
It's really on the hot
side, the air molecule

01:06:41.840 --> 01:06:44.570 align:middle line:90%
collided with the wall.

01:06:44.570 --> 01:06:46.100 align:middle line:90%
And on the wall is hot.

01:06:46.100 --> 01:06:49.220 align:middle line:90%
It means the velocity is faster.

01:06:49.220 --> 01:06:53.090 align:middle line:84%
So this molecule will
get a faster velocity

01:06:53.090 --> 01:06:56.300 align:middle line:84%
due to that energy exchange
between the wall and the air

01:06:56.300 --> 01:06:58.460 align:middle line:90%
molecules.

01:06:58.460 --> 01:07:01.910 align:middle line:84%
Now, this hot air molecule will
collide with the [INAUDIBLE]

01:07:01.910 --> 01:07:02.690 align:middle line:90%
molecule.

01:07:02.690 --> 01:07:05.930 align:middle line:84%
Of course, we have a
chance to go randomly.

01:07:05.930 --> 01:07:08.750 align:middle line:84%
Every molecule is moving a
few 100 meters per second,

01:07:08.750 --> 01:07:09.810 align:middle line:90%
as we talked before.

01:07:09.810 --> 01:07:15.050 align:middle line:84%
And they collide
with the cooler one.

01:07:15.050 --> 01:07:18.590 align:middle line:84%
And they pump some of that
excess energy to the next

01:07:18.590 --> 01:07:21.350 align:middle line:84%
[? level. ?] The next
[? level ?] will go back

01:07:21.350 --> 01:07:23.120 align:middle line:90%
and forth.

01:07:23.120 --> 01:07:26.180 align:middle line:84%
Again, they do this,
cascade energy from the hot

01:07:26.180 --> 01:07:27.980 align:middle line:90%
to the cold side.

01:07:27.980 --> 01:07:31.220 align:middle line:90%
It's a diffusion process.

01:07:31.220 --> 01:07:37.670 align:middle line:84%
And typically, there is a the
distance of this collision.

01:07:37.670 --> 01:07:40.250 align:middle line:90%
You can go to estimate it.

01:07:40.250 --> 01:07:43.400 align:middle line:84%
And just turns out
that this distance

01:07:43.400 --> 01:07:45.860 align:middle line:84%
between the average
of multiple collision

01:07:45.860 --> 01:07:48.470 align:middle line:90%
is about 100 nanometer.

01:07:48.470 --> 01:07:51.770 align:middle line:84%
In this room, the air molecule
distance between collision

01:07:51.770 --> 01:07:54.370 align:middle line:90%
is about 100 nanometer.

01:07:54.370 --> 01:08:02.530 align:middle line:84%
And so now I give you
a few more definition.

01:08:02.530 --> 01:08:07.270 align:middle line:84%
The energy per particle, let's
take energy per particle as e.

01:08:07.270 --> 01:08:12.970 align:middle line:84%
And the average velocity is
v. And time between collision

01:08:12.970 --> 01:08:14.410 align:middle line:90%
is tau.

01:08:14.410 --> 01:08:18.170 align:middle line:84%
And distance between
collision is gamma.

01:08:18.170 --> 01:08:19.490 align:middle line:90%
That's the mean free path.

01:08:19.490 --> 01:08:22.359 align:middle line:84%
So time is the average
time between collision

01:08:22.359 --> 01:08:24.100 align:middle line:90%
is the relaxation time.

01:08:24.100 --> 01:08:30.430 align:middle line:84%
And this distance and the time
is related by the velocity.

01:08:30.430 --> 01:08:34.510 align:middle line:90%
So what is a heat transfer?

01:08:34.510 --> 01:08:40.600 align:middle line:84%
When I think about heat going
through this imaginary surface

01:08:40.600 --> 01:08:43.840 align:middle line:90%
here, how I calculate it?

01:08:43.840 --> 01:08:45.010 align:middle line:90%
I can't.

01:08:45.010 --> 01:08:47.500 align:middle line:90%
I do [INAUDIBLE].

01:08:47.500 --> 01:08:52.510 align:middle line:84%
I will say, OK, only
those molecules within one

01:08:52.510 --> 01:08:54.040 align:middle line:90%
mean free path.

01:08:54.040 --> 01:08:59.140 align:middle line:84%
vx is a velocity component
in the x direction,

01:08:59.140 --> 01:09:00.560 align:middle line:90%
times the collision time.

01:09:00.560 --> 01:09:05.380 align:middle line:84%
So only those molecules can
go zip through the interface

01:09:05.380 --> 01:09:08.620 align:middle line:84%
without collision, because
tau is the average time

01:09:08.620 --> 01:09:11.520 align:middle line:90%
between collision.

01:09:11.520 --> 01:09:15.450 align:middle line:84%
So this part of the molecule
is harder to go from this side

01:09:15.450 --> 01:09:16.920 align:middle line:90%
to the other side.

01:09:16.920 --> 01:09:20.160 align:middle line:84%
And on this side, the
molecule is cooler again,

01:09:20.160 --> 01:09:22.260 align:middle line:84%
in the vx times
tau [? average, ?]

01:09:22.260 --> 01:09:25.890 align:middle line:84%
they go from this side
to the other side.

01:09:25.890 --> 01:09:28.870 align:middle line:90%
And I take the difference.

01:09:28.870 --> 01:09:30.899 align:middle line:90%
I count all the molecules.

01:09:30.899 --> 01:09:31.899 align:middle line:90%
I take the difference.

01:09:31.899 --> 01:09:33.840 align:middle line:90%
That's my reflux.

01:09:33.840 --> 01:09:37.710 align:middle line:90%
So let me write down the math.

01:09:37.710 --> 01:09:39.240 align:middle line:90%
That's what I do.

01:09:39.240 --> 01:09:43.140 align:middle line:84%
I say on the left
hand side, this

01:09:43.140 --> 01:09:45.479 align:middle line:84%
is a per unit
volume of how many.

01:09:45.479 --> 01:09:51.420 align:middle line:84%
N is the particle number
density, the second bullet

01:09:51.420 --> 01:09:52.529 align:middle line:90%
there.

01:09:52.529 --> 01:09:56.460 align:middle line:84%
Each particle, how
much energy it has?

01:09:56.460 --> 01:09:59.970 align:middle line:84%
And this is the velocity
in the x direction.

01:09:59.970 --> 01:10:05.770 align:middle line:84%
So I say only in this range,
from x to vx minus tau.

01:10:05.770 --> 01:10:07.590 align:middle line:84%
In this range, you
can go through.

01:10:07.590 --> 01:10:11.710 align:middle line:84%
On the other side
is x plus vx tau.

01:10:11.710 --> 01:10:13.360 align:middle line:90%
You can do more detail.

01:10:13.360 --> 01:10:16.690 align:middle line:84%
I hear this is a
very simple argument.

01:10:16.690 --> 01:10:20.650 align:middle line:84%
So that gives me a
[INAUDIBLE] for heat plotting.

01:10:20.650 --> 01:10:26.435 align:middle line:84%
Go check a unit is a watt per
meter squared, [INAUDIBLE] plus.

01:10:26.435 --> 01:10:28.810 align:middle line:84%
In the next lecture we'll just
do a [INAUDIBLE] expansion

01:10:28.810 --> 01:10:34.360 align:middle line:84%
of these two terms and write
it into a differential form,

01:10:34.360 --> 01:10:36.320 align:middle line:84%
because this is
about 100 nanometers.

01:10:36.320 --> 01:10:41.050 align:middle line:84%
If I do meters or
centimeters or millimeters,

01:10:41.050 --> 01:10:43.930 align:middle line:84%
that's essentially continuum,
a very small delta.

01:10:43.930 --> 01:10:46.600 align:middle line:90%
So I do the derivative.

01:10:46.600 --> 01:10:49.040 align:middle line:90%
And I do a Taylor expansion.

01:10:49.040 --> 01:10:53.800 align:middle line:84%
This one half is because there's
only half of this go this way,

01:10:53.800 --> 01:10:54.710 align:middle line:90%
half goes that way.

01:10:54.710 --> 01:10:57.290 align:middle line:84%
So that's where the
[INAUDIBLE] came from.

01:10:57.290 --> 01:11:00.940 align:middle line:84%
And after I do the
Taylor expansion,

01:11:00.940 --> 01:11:04.870 align:middle line:90%
I have e and v and vx.

01:11:04.870 --> 01:11:06.850 align:middle line:90%
vx is random velocity.

01:11:06.850 --> 01:11:10.760 align:middle line:84%
I pull out this
independent of distance.

01:11:10.760 --> 01:11:12.010 align:middle line:90%
It could be dependent on this.

01:11:12.010 --> 01:11:15.010 align:middle line:84%
I'm just making an
assumption, approximation.

01:11:15.010 --> 01:11:16.420 align:middle line:90%
In there are different distance.

01:11:16.420 --> 01:11:18.250 align:middle line:90%
This vx square.

01:11:18.250 --> 01:11:20.140 align:middle line:90%
vx square is random.

01:11:20.140 --> 01:11:24.120 align:middle line:84%
So it's one third of the
average velocity, one third

01:11:24.120 --> 01:11:24.970 align:middle line:90%
of v squared.

01:11:24.970 --> 01:11:29.270 align:middle line:84%
So that's my one third v square
replacing this vx square.

01:11:29.270 --> 01:11:30.560 align:middle line:90%
Tau is here.

01:11:30.560 --> 01:11:35.240 align:middle line:84%
And the n times e
is a per unit volume

01:11:35.240 --> 01:11:38.610 align:middle line:84%
how much energy, internal
energy the molecule has.

01:11:38.610 --> 01:11:43.760 align:middle line:90%
So I have this n times e is u.

01:11:43.760 --> 01:11:46.120 align:middle line:84%
And I take a general
do, dg, dbdx.

01:11:46.120 --> 01:11:49.320 align:middle line:90%


01:11:49.320 --> 01:11:50.970 align:middle line:90%
OK, what you get?

01:11:50.970 --> 01:11:54.750 align:middle line:90%
You got [INAUDIBLE].

01:11:54.750 --> 01:11:58.500 align:middle line:84%
Because here is one third
v squared, tau [INAUDIBLE].

01:11:58.500 --> 01:12:00.790 align:middle line:84%
And that's the
thermal conductivity.

01:12:00.790 --> 01:12:03.810 align:middle line:84%
And this is the
temperature gradient.

01:12:03.810 --> 01:12:04.740 align:middle line:90%
You can do that.

01:12:04.740 --> 01:12:08.640 align:middle line:84%
You can go back and do your
Fick's law and Newton's shear

01:12:08.640 --> 01:12:09.370 align:middle line:90%
stress law.

01:12:09.370 --> 01:12:15.110 align:middle line:84%
In fact, all the diffusion
law you learn in three steps.

01:12:15.110 --> 01:12:18.110 align:middle line:90%


01:12:18.110 --> 01:12:19.280 align:middle line:90%
But yes.

01:12:19.280 --> 01:12:21.320 align:middle line:84%
STUDENT: You said we could
move the velocity out

01:12:21.320 --> 01:12:23.570 align:middle line:84%
of the derivative
because of its constant.

01:12:23.570 --> 01:12:26.170 align:middle line:84%
But isn't the velocity
related to the temperature?

01:12:26.170 --> 01:12:28.340 align:middle line:90%
GANG CHEN: Yeah, good question.

01:12:28.340 --> 01:12:32.900 align:middle line:84%
This is later on when discuss
the thermoelectric effect.

01:12:32.900 --> 01:12:35.810 align:middle line:90%
I'll come back to this.

01:12:35.810 --> 01:12:37.700 align:middle line:84%
Here I'm talking
about a molecule.

01:12:37.700 --> 01:12:41.615 align:middle line:84%
And I just wanted to show
you the [? Fourier ?] law.

01:12:41.615 --> 01:12:43.520 align:middle line:84%
And they're clearly
approximation.

01:12:43.520 --> 01:12:48.410 align:middle line:84%
And what are you talking is more
like a coupled mass and heat

01:12:48.410 --> 01:12:49.520 align:middle line:90%
transfer.

01:12:49.520 --> 01:12:53.030 align:middle line:84%
And, in fact, if you learn
once the heat transfer,

01:12:53.030 --> 01:12:54.895 align:middle line:84%
you know mass and
heat transfer couples.

01:12:54.895 --> 01:12:59.210 align:middle line:90%


01:12:59.210 --> 01:13:06.650 align:middle line:84%
So the thermal conductivity is
one third specific heat velocity

01:13:06.650 --> 01:13:09.020 align:middle line:90%
and mean free path.

01:13:09.020 --> 01:13:13.220 align:middle line:84%
And the specific heat
is per unit volume.

01:13:13.220 --> 01:13:16.700 align:middle line:84%
If I do capital sales
per unit volume based,

01:13:16.700 --> 01:13:19.910 align:middle line:84%
and typically we do per
unit mass based since this

01:13:19.910 --> 01:13:24.550 align:middle line:84%
is a density price
per unit mass basis.

01:13:24.550 --> 01:13:30.360 align:middle line:84%
So this is the a very useful
relation to keep in mind.

01:13:30.360 --> 01:13:33.460 align:middle line:84%
Simple thermal
conductivity depends

01:13:33.460 --> 01:13:38.080 align:middle line:84%
on how many energy is stored
by the molecule, how fast they

01:13:38.080 --> 01:13:41.740 align:middle line:84%
travel, and how far they
travel between quality.

01:13:41.740 --> 01:13:43.540 align:middle line:84%
So if you want a high
thermal conductivity,

01:13:43.540 --> 01:13:46.840 align:middle line:84%
you want the power
of [INAUDIBLE].

01:13:46.840 --> 01:13:50.480 align:middle line:84%
Low thermal conductivity,
you reduce that.

01:13:50.480 --> 01:13:53.800 align:middle line:90%


01:13:53.800 --> 01:14:00.430 align:middle line:84%
And for most solid, they say
is about 10 to the sixth power.

01:14:00.430 --> 01:14:03.490 align:middle line:84%
It doesn't vary
by a factor of 5.

01:14:03.490 --> 01:14:07.630 align:middle line:84%
So when I do on my back of
envelope order of magnitude

01:14:07.630 --> 01:14:10.130 align:middle line:84%
estimation, I say
is 10 to the sixth.

01:14:10.130 --> 01:14:12.490 align:middle line:90%
You go to check.

01:14:12.490 --> 01:14:18.130 align:middle line:84%
And velocity in solid is just
you can roughly think the speed

01:14:18.130 --> 01:14:23.230 align:middle line:84%
of sound, few 100 or few
1,000 meters per second.

01:14:23.230 --> 01:14:26.720 align:middle line:90%
The mean free path is short--

01:14:26.720 --> 01:14:30.020 align:middle line:90%
nanometers, 100 nanometers.

01:14:30.020 --> 01:14:34.430 align:middle line:90%
So that's the range order.

01:14:34.430 --> 01:14:38.690 align:middle line:84%
So this is I think
most of you, probably

01:14:38.690 --> 01:14:40.700 align:middle line:90%
in 2005, you haven't seen it.

01:14:40.700 --> 01:14:42.180 align:middle line:90%
It's very simple.

01:14:42.180 --> 01:14:49.220 align:middle line:84%
But the picture is really the
diffusion picture or similar.

01:14:49.220 --> 01:14:52.190 align:middle line:90%
Let me give you--

01:14:52.190 --> 01:14:55.340 align:middle line:90%
I haven't finished radiation.

01:14:55.340 --> 01:14:56.330 align:middle line:90%
So I come back to--

01:14:56.330 --> 01:14:58.170 align:middle line:84%
I said that
Stefan-Boltzmann law.

01:14:58.170 --> 01:15:03.770 align:middle line:84%
And what I want to
show you next is

01:15:03.770 --> 01:15:06.350 align:middle line:84%
how I can derive
Stefan-Boltzmann law

01:15:06.350 --> 01:15:08.750 align:middle line:90%
from the statistics.

01:15:08.750 --> 01:15:11.420 align:middle line:90%
I just showed.

01:15:11.420 --> 01:15:17.480 align:middle line:90%
So I'm considering enclosure.

01:15:17.480 --> 01:15:21.500 align:middle line:84%
Let me imagine the enclosure
is perfectly reflecting.

01:15:21.500 --> 01:15:22.340 align:middle line:90%
There are photons.

01:15:22.340 --> 01:15:24.410 align:middle line:84%
And the walls is
the temperature, t.

01:15:24.410 --> 01:15:26.010 align:middle line:90%
So it's a equilibrium system.

01:15:26.010 --> 01:15:29.480 align:middle line:84%
I want to see how many
the electromagnetic waves

01:15:29.480 --> 01:15:35.040 align:middle line:84%
inside this box, how
much energy they have,

01:15:35.040 --> 01:15:36.840 align:middle line:84%
a constant temperature--
equilibrium,

01:15:36.840 --> 01:15:38.230 align:middle line:90%
thermal equilibrium.

01:15:38.230 --> 01:15:45.000 align:middle line:84%
So let's go back to a little
bit of the basic relations

01:15:45.000 --> 01:15:47.300 align:middle line:90%
of thermal electromagnetic wave.

01:15:47.300 --> 01:15:51.270 align:middle line:84%
We know the speed of light
is proportional to its speed

01:15:51.270 --> 01:15:55.470 align:middle line:84%
of light as a wavelength
times frequency.

01:15:55.470 --> 01:15:58.740 align:middle line:90%
That's a high school learn.

01:15:58.740 --> 01:16:04.470 align:middle line:84%
And definition, I say
angular velocity is 2 pi mu.

01:16:04.470 --> 01:16:08.430 align:middle line:84%
We vector magnitude
is 2 pi over lambda.

01:16:08.430 --> 01:16:09.900 align:middle line:90%
What is the wave vector?

01:16:09.900 --> 01:16:13.320 align:middle line:84%
The wave propagates
in certain direction.

01:16:13.320 --> 01:16:19.080 align:middle line:84%
And so because the
direction is a vector.

01:16:19.080 --> 01:16:21.840 align:middle line:84%
2 pi lambda, lambda
is a wavelength.

01:16:21.840 --> 01:16:23.250 align:middle line:90%
It's a scalar.

01:16:23.250 --> 01:16:26.020 align:middle line:90%
And the rationale is the vector.

01:16:26.020 --> 01:16:32.970 align:middle line:84%
So it's a kx, ky, kz if you
do Cartesian coordinate.

01:16:32.970 --> 01:16:38.130 align:middle line:84%
And so I can write it C
equals mu times lambda.

01:16:38.130 --> 01:16:41.280 align:middle line:84%
In terms of
frequency and vector,

01:16:41.280 --> 01:16:44.520 align:middle line:90%
it's c times omega equals to ct.

01:16:44.520 --> 01:16:48.000 align:middle line:84%
So this relation between
the vector, magnitude,

01:16:48.000 --> 01:16:50.430 align:middle line:84%
and the frequency is
called dispersion.

01:16:50.430 --> 01:16:51.870 align:middle line:90%
And in the speed--

01:16:51.870 --> 01:16:54.660 align:middle line:84%
in the case of
light, it's a linear.

01:16:54.660 --> 01:17:00.060 align:middle line:84%
C is 310 to the eighth
meter per second.

01:17:00.060 --> 01:17:02.280 align:middle line:84%
And, of course,
because the vector,

01:17:02.280 --> 01:17:04.600 align:middle line:84%
so it's a square root
of the components.

01:17:04.600 --> 01:17:07.160 align:middle line:90%


01:17:07.160 --> 01:17:09.980 align:middle line:90%
So that's the dispersion.

01:17:09.980 --> 01:17:12.440 align:middle line:90%
And now I want to count.

01:17:12.440 --> 01:17:18.470 align:middle line:84%
My question is, how much energy
photon has inside this box?

01:17:18.470 --> 01:17:23.330 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to count how
many modes you have.

01:17:23.330 --> 01:17:26.990 align:middle line:84%
Remember each mode, the
Bose-Einstein distribution

01:17:26.990 --> 01:17:34.430 align:middle line:84%
already tells me for each
mode how many photons.

01:17:34.430 --> 01:17:37.510 align:middle line:90%
So how many modes?

01:17:37.510 --> 01:17:39.030 align:middle line:84%
So that's basically
I'm counting.

01:17:39.030 --> 01:17:42.510 align:middle line:90%


01:17:42.510 --> 01:17:44.670 align:middle line:84%
Because I'm a
perfect [INAUDIBLE],

01:17:44.670 --> 01:17:48.330 align:middle line:84%
you can see the mode has
to be standing wave here,

01:17:48.330 --> 01:17:51.300 align:middle line:90%
either this way or this way.

01:17:51.300 --> 01:17:53.820 align:middle line:90%
That boundary is 0.

01:17:53.820 --> 01:17:55.740 align:middle line:90%
STUDENT: Why is it 0?

01:17:55.740 --> 01:17:57.540 align:middle line:90%
Why should it be 0?

01:17:57.540 --> 01:17:59.910 align:middle line:84%
GANG CHEN: Otherwise it
doesn't get a steady state.

01:17:59.910 --> 01:18:03.720 align:middle line:90%
It keeps propagating.

01:18:03.720 --> 01:18:07.350 align:middle line:84%
So this is my
wavelength component

01:18:07.350 --> 01:18:12.090 align:middle line:84%
in the x direction. kx is
a corresponding wavelength

01:18:12.090 --> 01:18:13.740 align:middle line:90%
in x direction.

01:18:13.740 --> 01:18:18.000 align:middle line:90%
And the lx is the length here.

01:18:18.000 --> 01:18:21.030 align:middle line:84%
So if I just say, this
must satisfy the rule,

01:18:21.030 --> 01:18:23.490 align:middle line:90%
then I have to have integer.

01:18:23.490 --> 01:18:26.790 align:middle line:90%
Those are the possibilities.

01:18:26.790 --> 01:18:31.800 align:middle line:84%
And that translated in
the possibility of my k.

01:18:31.800 --> 01:18:35.190 align:middle line:90%
kx just is 2 pi over lambda x.

01:18:35.190 --> 01:18:39.960 align:middle line:90%
So this is n tau pi 2lx.

01:18:39.960 --> 01:18:47.160 align:middle line:84%
OK, so each combination
of x and y and z, each set

01:18:47.160 --> 01:18:50.490 align:middle line:90%
gives me one mode.

01:18:50.490 --> 01:18:54.330 align:middle line:84%
And I want to find out
how much energy, I just

01:18:54.330 --> 01:18:56.430 align:middle line:90%
sum up all those modes.

01:18:56.430 --> 01:19:00.400 align:middle line:90%
So I sum that up.

01:19:00.400 --> 01:19:02.230 align:middle line:84%
And remember, when
I do molecules,

01:19:02.230 --> 01:19:06.370 align:middle line:84%
I do velocity from minus
infinity to plus infinity.

01:19:06.370 --> 01:19:10.270 align:middle line:84%
And here when I do this,
I do discreet summation

01:19:10.270 --> 01:19:12.370 align:middle line:90%
of nx, and ny, and nz.

01:19:12.370 --> 01:19:16.840 align:middle line:90%
So I do this summation.

01:19:16.840 --> 01:19:20.290 align:middle line:90%
This is an x, y, and z.

01:19:20.290 --> 01:19:25.300 align:middle line:84%
Each mode has this is the number
of photons in this area set.

01:19:25.300 --> 01:19:30.030 align:middle line:84%
And this is the energy of
a photon is [INAUDIBLE].

01:19:30.030 --> 01:19:32.550 align:middle line:84%
I got the factor of 2 because
the electromagnetic wave

01:19:32.550 --> 01:19:33.960 align:middle line:90%
is a transverse wave.

01:19:33.960 --> 01:19:39.420 align:middle line:84%
And it has a two component, two
polarizations, so that factor

01:19:39.420 --> 01:19:42.400 align:middle line:90%
of 2 [INAUDIBLE].

01:19:42.400 --> 01:19:47.530 align:middle line:84%
OK, if you don't look at this,
that's where my starting point.

01:19:47.530 --> 01:19:50.740 align:middle line:84%
And what I want to do is,
rather than do the summation,

01:19:50.740 --> 01:19:54.460 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to translate
it into integration.

01:19:54.460 --> 01:19:56.950 align:middle line:90%
Summation is over n.

01:19:56.950 --> 01:20:02.650 align:middle line:84%
So if you look at this interval
between n and k, it's 2 pi 2lx,

01:20:02.650 --> 01:20:08.260 align:middle line:84%
so when I have a dkx,
I divide by 2 pi 2lx.

01:20:08.260 --> 01:20:11.470 align:middle line:84%
That's n if this
is large number.

01:20:11.470 --> 01:20:15.510 align:middle line:84%
If small, you have
a lot of problem.

01:20:15.510 --> 01:20:22.680 align:middle line:84%
So I translate this summation,
nx, into this dkx integration.

01:20:22.680 --> 01:20:26.350 align:middle line:90%
I do same for ky, kz.

01:20:26.350 --> 01:20:27.515 align:middle line:90%
This is-- I'm just copying.

01:20:27.515 --> 01:20:30.810 align:middle line:90%


01:20:30.810 --> 01:20:35.910 align:middle line:84%
I go the extra step here
just for the later purpose.

01:20:35.910 --> 01:20:38.980 align:middle line:84%
Because my function
is a is even function.

01:20:38.980 --> 01:20:42.840 align:middle line:84%
So I extend to minus
infinity to plus infinity.

01:20:42.840 --> 01:20:44.460 align:middle line:84%
The difference is
the factor of 2.

01:20:44.460 --> 01:20:47.940 align:middle line:84%
So I don't have this 2 here
anymore, because the factor of 2

01:20:47.940 --> 01:20:51.030 align:middle line:90%
is gone.

01:20:51.030 --> 01:20:53.640 align:middle line:84%
That's just for
my later purpose.

01:20:53.640 --> 01:20:56.790 align:middle line:84%
The end result, this
is just an equivalent.

01:20:56.790 --> 01:20:59.610 align:middle line:84%
And what it means is I can,
rather than standing wave,

01:20:59.610 --> 01:21:01.740 align:middle line:84%
I can say do two
counter-propagating.

01:21:01.740 --> 01:21:03.730 align:middle line:90%
One goes left, one goes right.

01:21:03.730 --> 01:21:07.470 align:middle line:84%
That's when you do the
maximal velocity is minus

01:21:07.470 --> 01:21:08.670 align:middle line:90%
infinity, plus infinity.

01:21:08.670 --> 01:21:11.580 align:middle line:90%
So that's equivalent.

01:21:11.580 --> 01:21:16.130 align:middle line:84%
OK, I think I will
probably have to stop here.

01:21:16.130 --> 01:21:19.500 align:middle line:84%
There are two more slides you
can look at, but I'll discuss.

01:21:19.500 --> 01:21:23.490 align:middle line:84%
What's coming is the
blackbody radiation

01:21:23.490 --> 01:21:25.860 align:middle line:84%
in each wavelength,
how much energy

01:21:25.860 --> 01:21:28.375 align:middle line:90%
varies with simple [INAUDIBLE].

01:21:28.375 --> 01:21:30.990 align:middle line:90%


01:21:30.990 --> 01:21:32.540 align:middle line:90%
OK.
