Factors important in radiant heat loss are the surface area and the temperature gradient. Conduction - through direct contact between objects, molecular transference of heat energy Water conducts heat ...

Wall heaters (“radiators”) heat mainly by convection. Trapped air prevents heat loss by conduction and convection. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy from a region of high temperature to ...

When fast-moving atoms or molecules hit slower-moving atoms or molecules and increase their speed, heat is transferred. This process is called conduction. The atoms in the hot spoon are moving faster ...
