it consists a double walled glass vessel having a vaccum between the walls.both these walls are silvered on the vaccum side.no heat can enter or leave the inner flask by convection oor conduction across vaccum.a small amount of heat can be gained by the flask through by radiation but the silver surface to control radiant heat and reduce it to a minimum

What is the thermo flask?
Thermos flask is a thermos container used to store liquids like any hot drink. The liquid added to thermos flask will retain the temperature even after some time irrespective of external temperatures.
What is the main cause of heat loss in a normal thermos flask?
The main heat loss in a good thermos flask, is due to heat conducted through the material. (Glass or Stainless Steel). There should be little heat lost through the vacuum of the flask.
How a thermos flask minimizes energy losses from convection?
As the flask is closed air tight, no convection current is possible.
