Transmission of Heat                     


  • Heat is a form of energy that transfer form hotter objects to colder objects because of temperature difference.
  • Conduction, convection, and radiation are three different modes of heat transfer.
  • In conduction the molecules vibrate about a central point.
  • Gases are worst conductors of all.
  • Stone is a better conductor of heat than a carpet.
  • In convection molecules are free to move about.
  • Convection occurs only in liquids and gases
  • Coastal breeze is produced by convection.
  • Radiation of heat can occur with or without a material medium.
  • Air is a bad conductor of heat.
  • Thermos flask is a type of flask that aims to stop all three forms of heat transfer.
