Heat always, and only, flows from a hot item to a cooler one.

What most determines how hot or cold something feels when you touch it?
Heat flow determines how hot or cold something feels when you touch it.
Do heat and cold flow between objects?
Technically the answer to your question is no. Heat does indeed flow between objects, but cold does not because it doesn't really physically exist. "Cold" is just a lower level of heat.
Which is more in heat transfer between parallel and counter flow heat exchanger?
Counterflow heat exchangers typically transfer more heat to a fluid simply because the hottest part of the exchanger is where the heating medium enters the heater and the heated medium leaves the heater. In a parrallel flow exchanger the hottest part of the heater is where the heating medium enters, and the coolest part where the heated medium enters, and some temperature in between is found where both exit the heater.
Comparison of Counter-current flow and parallel flow?
Counter-current flow is more efficient then parallel flow. Shahzad, MUET Chemical Engineer
If a snowball was on the counter how does heat flow fron the counter to the snowball?
Yes because of the warmth in the house. That warmth will flow from the air to heat the counter top and melt the snowball
Why is the cooling water in the liebig conden ser made to run counter current to the flow of the distillate?
Counter current cooling is the most efficient cooling because cold liquid interracts with a cooled down liquid at the outlet.
Difference between cold and warm currents?
Warm currents are warm whereas cold currents are cold. Warm currents flow from the equatorial regions towards the polar regions whereas cold currents flow from the polar regions to the equatorial regions. By- Avyukt Sharma
How can you describe the flow of heat?
The first statement is correct. Nature's law is that all things flow from where there is more of something to where there is less of something until they reach an equilibrium, where both sides are the same. For example, if something cold was touching something hot, then the heat from the hot object would keep flowing into the cold object until both objects are the same temperature.
When have a hot and cold substance which direction does thermal energy flow?
It will flow to the cold substance
What are the advantages of co-current flow?
A Counter-current flow has more advantages as comapared to a co-current flow.
What direction do gyres flow in the south?
counter-clockwise
What factor free covection heat flow depends?
The only factor that free convection heat flow depends on is the conductivity of the material. Heat moves toward a cold area and heat it up and the reverse is true for cold, it will cool down something warm.
