How is a refrigerator an example of a heat mover?
Normally, heat moves from a higher temperature to a lower temperature. Devices that use work to move heat are called heat movers. A refrigerator is an example of a heat mover because it takes the heat from inside of the refrigerator and moves it to the outside. The 2nd law of thermodynamics allows this to occur if work is done in the process. A refrigerator does work as it moves the heat from inside the refrigerator to the warmer room.
Hwat ways do people use sun's energy directly or indirectly?
People use the sun's energy directly and indirectly in many ways. They use it to dry their clothes, grow food, heat their water, generate electricity, and to heat a home.
Radiant Heaters More Energy Efficient Than Forced Air Heat?
Radiant heaters supply heat directly to the ceiling, floor or walls of a home. They use radiant heat transfer, which is heat moving directly from the hot surface to the objects or people in the room. This is the same effect as when you can feel the heat of stove burner from across the room. This type of heating is more energy efficient than forced-air heat because no heat is lost in the duct work. Since there is no moving air, it is better for people with allergies.
