What is thermal energy transfer?

Back

The movement of heat from one object or substance to another.

Front

What is conduction?

Back

A type of thermal energy transfer that occurs through direct contact between materials.

Front

What is convection?

Back

A type of thermal energy transfer that occurs through the movement of fluids (liquids and gases) due to differences in temperature.

Front

What is radiation?

Back

A type of thermal energy transfer that occurs through electromagnetic waves, such as heat from the sun.
