Heat

Description

Heat is a form of energy [J]. The relationship between heat and work provides the foundation of thermodynamics, which describes transformations from an initial to a final state of a system. In energy transformations heat may pass through the boundary of the system, at an external heat flow of deQ/dt.

Abbreviation: Q, Qth [J]

Reference: Energy

Symbol Q

To distinguish Q in thermodynamics and electricity, Qth [J] is used for heat, and Qel [C] for charge.
