Heat conduction is when heat is directly transmitted through contact from one object to another. When two objects of different temperatures make contact with each other they strive to become in equilibrium with one another i.e. at the same temperature. This is done via vibrational energy transferred from the particles in one object to particles in the other. Vibrations which travel through solids in this way are called 'phonons' which is basically a way of quantifying the vibrational energy.
That sounds like a description of heat conduction.
That would be a description of heat transfer by conduction.
no, conduction describes how the heat is transported not how it is generated. With conduction, a heat source is still needed.
Two examples of heat conduction that are observable in everyday life:- heat conduction through walls- heat conduction through clothing- heat conduction from many home appliances
conduction by itself is slower to heat but conduction and convection is faster to heat
Conduction is one way that heat spreads.
Conduction is the term for heat transfer because of direct contact.
Conduction heat moves by using movement of fluids.
Conduction heat moves by using movement of fluids.
In Conduction the heat flows by molecular contact (i.e.) by touch)
Why is conduction important?
the transfer of heat from one end of body to another end of body is called conduction of heat
