Heat Transfers

There are three different types of Heat Transfers.  These are...

• Conduction

• Convection (medium must be liquid)

• Radiation

The basic question arises, What do these mean?  Well, if you are someone who is having trouble understanding these concepts, you are not alone.  Once you are familiar with these concepts, they don't seem as confusing, as most concepts do once you understand them.

First, what does it mean by Heat Transfers?

Well, Heat Transfer is the name given to the different ways that heat can move through matter, or just the name that is given for the movement of heat.

Note: Heat is transfered by the particles/molecules converting energy by crashing into each other.
