3 Types Of Heat Transfer
Atoms and molecules are capable of transferring heat. Atoms are in motion at all times. The motion of molecules and atoms is the source of heat or thermal energy, and every matter contains this energy. The more molecules move, the more heat energy there will be. However, when it comes to heat transfer, it is nothing more than the transfer of heat from a high-temperature body to a low-temperature body. An electrical enclosure is cooled by transferring heat from inside and releasing it to the surrounding air. There are various methods of transferring heat, including convection, conduction, thermal radiation, and evaporative cooling. Sometimes a substance can absorb heat without an increase in temperature. This happens if the substance changes its physical state, such as when ice melts or when a liquid turns into a gas, such as this boiling water. 3 Types of Heat Transfer Conduction Convection Radiation 1.
