  1. 19th Century
    1. HEAT
      1. MIDDLE OF THE 19th Century
        1. Invisible, weightless, a substance called a CALORIC FLUID
          1. REJECTED! BY COUNT BENJAMIN THOMPSON RUMFORD
            1. AMERICAN-BORN PHYSICIST
              1. HEAT IS FROM THE FRICTION ALONE, SEEMED LIMITLESS AND NOT A SUBSTANCE
                1. AFTER 40 YEARS
                  1. JAMES PRESCOTT JOULE
                    1. ENGLISH PHYSICIST
                      1. Proved that a measurable amount of mechanical energy could always be transformed into definite amounts of heat. Heat must be just another form of energy
                  2. MILITARY EXPERT IN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES
              2. SOURCES OF HEAT
                1. NATURAL SOURCES

                      1. CHEMICAL ACTION
                        1. Fuels like coal, oil, kerosene, wood and gasoline are burned
                          1. Used as artificial sources of heat
                            1. Body = furnace
                              1. Oxygen burns food = 370C
