Energy, Heat & Thermal Design — Chapter overview · Science 6: Matter, Energy & Earth Systems, Grade 6
How do energy transfers explain cooling and a feasible thermal design? Which feasible sleeve slows cooling under the matched model, and what should be redesigned?
Chapter question

Units in this chapter
- Unit 3.1 · Forms of Energy & Evidence of Transfer
I can name the store an object's energy is in and say what it depends on.
- Unit 3.2 · Energy Transformations, Conservation & Dissipation
I can calculate efficiency as useful output divided by total input.
- Unit 3.3 · Heat, Temperature & Thermal Energy
I can explain the difference between temperature and thermal energy with an example.
- Unit 3.4 · Conduction, Convection & Radiation
I can explain why metals conduct far better than air or wood.
- Unit 3.5 · Thermal Design: Compare, Improve & Retest
I can state a design goal as a measurable criterion before building anything.
