A heat is used to increase the thermal energy in whatever you are testing. In a typical classroom situation, the heat will be supplied by a Bunsen Burner, which provides a flame. This flame is then used to heat whatever object needs heating. For example, boiling a beaker of water by applying the heat under said beaker.
