More on PlotsMay be computer generated or handwritten.Must be properly labeled.May be required to submit prior to competitionMust have a duplicate set to use during competition.Students may be asked about their data and how they use their plots.
![Page 8: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Impounding
Teams must impound-their device-parts and supplies (beakers; tools;
notes; plots)-appeals will not be processed after the
device is removed from competition.-all parts of the device must be
approximately room temperature at impound.
![Page 9: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Eye Protection
Must be worn during set-up and loading of their device.
If time allows they may be given the chance to obtain eye protection. If this is not possible they may not compete in Part 1

Construction Materials
Only allowable materials-wood; paper; cardboard; natural fibers; organic granular material; aluminum foil
Fastening materials may be:-tape; glue; screws; bolts; nuts; nails; string
Fastening materials are only to be used for securing the components together.

![Page 12: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Device
Must allow for the easy insertion and removal of a 250 ml beaker.Must accommodate the insertion and removal of a thermometer via a hole 1.5 cm in diameter directly above the beaker and will remain open during the competition. The top of the hole should be less than 5 cm above the lip of the beaker.
![Page 13: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Inspection
Devices will be inspected to look for energy sources such as electrical components; battery powered heaters; chemical reactions.At the end teams must disassemble their devices to verify compliance with all rules.
![Page 14: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The Competition
After Impound:-the temperature of the source water
will be announced-the volume of the water to be used
will be given -the cooling time will be announced-the ambient room temperature will
be announced.
![Page 15: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Competition Teams will have 5 minutes to set up their devices at the start of competition.Water will be given to teams in a staggered sequence. Both beakers will be filled with the same amount of water. (one inside device and the other next to it.)Supervisors will record the time that the team received their water.
![Page 16: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
StudentsMust use their graphs to calculate the temperature of the waterThey must supply the supervisor with their estimate at the end of the cooling time prior to the supervisor measuring the actual temperature.
![Page 17: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The Cooling TimeAt the end of the cooling period the supervisor will record the temperature in each beaker. Thermometers may be left in for the full time or may be reused for each station after necessary measures are taken to make sure all devices receive the exact same treatment. This will be announced prior to impound
![Page 18: Keep the Heat a recycled event](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167c5550346895ddd132e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Written Test (50 pts)-Each team will be given the same amount of time to compete after all devices have been loaded.-Topics include temperature conversions; definition of heat units; thermal conductivity; heat capacity; specific heat; the laws of thermodynamics; the history of thermodynamics and thermodynamic processes

Scoring
High score winsAll calculations are to be done in Celsius.Ranking will be done in two tiers
-the highest are those with no violations of rules
- the other group includes teams with any violation.

Written Test
Worth 50 Points
Entirely on thermodynamics - not scary - just a big word for heat.
Don’t let your students be beaten by vocabulary. Have them build a binder with everything they should know - especially vocabulary.

More• The First law of Thermodynamic is merely
the law of Conservation of energy• The Second states the heat cannot be
transferred from a colder to a hotter body and that the entropy of an energy system increases with time. (chaos) Perfect order in the Universe occurred the second after the Big Bang when matter; energy and forces were most organized.

And
• The Third law states that if all the thermal motion of an energy system could be removed that a state called absolute zero could be attained.
