Yes iron can conduct heat in fact it comes under the category of good conductors of heat and electricity and so you can tell from this that appliances and machinery and any thing that is made out of the iron will conduct the electricity. Iron is very widely used metal all over the worls and its use is continously increasing.

∙ 15y agoIron is a relatively good conductor of heat although it does have some resistance to the flow of heat. Therefore, depending on conditions of application it could be considered either a good conductor of heat, or a poor insulator.

∙ 10y agoJust about anything can conduct thermal energy; the issue is how well it does so. Iron is fairly good at it.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoEverything is relative. To answer this question you have to compare Iron to some other heat conductor. Iron is a better heat conductor than stone, a worse heat conductor than air.

Convection is transferred by air or other liquid (water?)
So heat from an Iron used to make clothes flat is conduction.

What are the three forms of heat transfer?
convection conduction and radiation
What is the Movement of thermal energy is called?
Conduction.Convection.Radiation
Is a curling iron conduction convection or radiation?
According to Wikipedia, convection is a heat transfer proces that requires the presence of something to transfer that heat, but it is a process that happens in fluids. Conduction is transfer of heat from a hot object to a less hot object, in this case from a hot curling iron to your hair. Radiation heat transfer is by its nature different from convection in that it does NOT require a medium. Since we are not talking about fluids or about heat transfer without the help of an medium, the process you are looking for is conduction
What are 3 types of heat transfer?
convection conduction radiation
Why can heat travel through space by radiation but not by conduction or convection?
Because conduction and convection require particles to transfer heat. Space is a vacuum (has no particles in it) so convection and conduction cannot occur.
What is the differ of conduction and convection?
conduction by itself is slower to heat but conduction and convection is faster to heat
Is an iron convection radiation or conduction?
convection
Is a Iron conduction convection radiation?
A clothes iron uses conduction.
