Heat propagation or transmission - Education and Transformation

Heat spread: Thermal Conduction, Thermal Convection and Thermal Irradiation

Heat also called heat energy is a physics concept that determines the exchange of thermal energy that acts between two bodies.

And this energy transfer is intended to balance the temperatures between the two bodies.

THE heat spread or transmission, can be in three ways:

See too: Energy electric: what is energy electric?

thermal conduction

Heat energy is transmitted through solid bodies that are heated by heat from fire or by contact with another hotter body.

When a body is heated, the kinetic energy increases and the molecules are agitated.

Examples:

  • Metal bar heating
  • Metal spoon heating kept in a pan.
  • Heating the metal handle of a pan
  • Warming up a cup of tea or coffee
  • Heating of clothes by electric iron

thermal convection

THE heat spread here it happens in substances in a liquid or gaseous state. Convection currents that are circular currents are created.

These currents are determined by the difference between the hottest and the coldest fluid.

Examples:

  • Heating liquids in a pan
  • fridge and freezer
  • Air conditioning
  • Heaters
  • Atmospheric air currents

I also recommend: Energy kinetics: what is energy kinetics and formula

thermal irradiation

in this heat spread electromagnetic waves or heat waves from a body are used to generate thermal energy.

Here the electrical particles of an object increase in the same way that kinetic energy does.

Examples:

  • Solar energy
  • Solar boards
  • Baking food in the oven
  • Fire from the fireplaces
  • plant greenhouse
