Heat and Temperature
The transfer of energy from a high temperature body to a lower temperature body is known as heat. Heat travels in form of waves and like any other form of energy it has the potential to bring change into the matter it contacts. This process is usually accompanied by the transfer of entropy, the energy per unit temperature that goes unused. Heat transfer is usually generated by three types of thermal interaction, mainly, conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is mostly related to the transfer of heat in solids, wherein the materials are in direct contact with each other and the heat ...
