Consider two bodies at different temperatures in thermal contact Then internal or thermal energy from the hot body will flow to the cold body The energy
It is the temperature difference between the two neighboring objects that causes this heat transfer The heat transfer continues until the two objects
One thing drives heat transfers it is a difference in temperature CONDUCTION – this form of heat transfer requires that two objects be in contact Thermal
When an object or fluid, is at a different temperature than its surroundings or another body, transfer of thermal energy is also known as heat transfer
Fig 2: Thermal resistance network The rate of heat transfer between two surfaces is equal to the temperature difference divided by the total thermal
Recall that when two substances at different temperatures are in contact with each other, the faster-moving particles of the warmer object collide with slower-
Heat can transfer between two mediums by conduction, convection and radiation whenever there is a temperature difference Recall the first law of
If two objects at different temperatures are brought in contact with each other, energy is transferred from the hotter to the colder object until equilibrium is
