Heat is not the transfer of thermal energy. Heat is the thermal energy. What drives itacross a boundary between substances or objects is a difference in their temperatures.
Heat is the amount of energy transferred between objects where a difference in temperature is present. So in that sense, heat is related to temperature differences, but is not the same. The temperature difference is caused by the difference in the avg. speed of particles between the two objects.
It's not. A difference in temperature is required in order to drive the transfer of heat.

Heat is transferred from one object to the other.
If those two objects are in contact with each other, they will come to thermal equilibrium, at a temperature some place between the original temperature of the two objects. The actual final temperature will depend on the specific heat capacity of each object, the mass of each object and the temperature of each object.
Heat energy is the energy that is transferred from one point to the another owing to the temperature difference between the two points
(thermal) equilibrium
heat
heat is hot, air is cold Heat and air differ in every respect; heat is a form of energy that is transferred by a difference in temperature, and air is a mixture of gases.

The average temperature difference between arid and temperate climates is about 30 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer months. The temperature difference is greater during the winter months, because arid climates do not have a defined winter.
Temperature is a measure of the heat energy of objects, and heat is the energy transferred from a high temperature location to a low temperature location.When two objects are in contact, heat always flows from the warmer object to the cooler object by conduction, until thermal equilibrium is established and the heat transfer stops (becomes the same in either direction). The transfer of heat continues as long as there is a difference in temperature between the two points.
