IOP Regional CPD: Heat Pumps, Lord Kelvin and the Gas Laws for KS4 and KS5

William Thomson, the first Lord Kelvin, described the theoretical basis for the heat pump in 1852. Heat pumps seem to defy nature and are a great place to understand the laws of thermodynamics. Hear how engineers are fitting heat pumps to homes in the UK to help battle global warming.

This session is hosted by Dave Cotton and is suitable for teachers of KS4 (age range 14-16) and KS5 (age range 16+) physics.

Dave is also running a repeat of this session on Saturday 6 March at 2pm – click here if you would like to attend.
