I would say it is traveling by your cars air conditioner pump/fan with the air running across your heater core but since that's mechanics I'll tell you the physics answer too...
Convection. Heat traveling through the air (or a liquid) to transfer to another (solid) material is called heating through convection. ;)

What are the two ways which stops heat being transferred?
Use a nonconductive item, such as wood. Anything nonmetal or conductive will not allow heat to pass through. For example, if you are in the car after a long day at the pool or beach, you may notice that the car is hot, because it is made of a conductive material. If it was made of wood, you would not feel the heat.Get rid of the heat. If there is no heat, there is nothing to transfer. You can make it cold, you can trap it with no oxygen so it can't spread, just make the heat go away.
How is energy transferred in a crash?
The energy in a crash can be transferred in a variety of ways. The most significant way is through mechanical and physical deformation. In a head on collision between two cars, the energy travels through the front of each car, crumpling the metal and machinery. Energy can then be transferred in the form of heat. Although this energy isn't as significant as mechanical energy, during the moment of impact there will be a trace amount of heat created through the scraping of metal. Energy is also transferred through sound waves. When two vehicles collide, the sound of the scraping metal is the transfer of some of the energy through the air.
What are some examples of energy being changed into another form?
Any fire. Your car. You. (All are changing chemical energy into motion and heat.)
How can kinetic energy be transferred into heat energy?
Hi everyone,Energy, like a a question the same, can be transferred by Kinetic or potential energy, but the most common way is:Energy is transferred by the movement of atoms,Atoms that can insulate heat the best is the onesthat have atoms close together.Atoms that are poor insulators have atoms that areatoms far apart, or spaced out.I hope this helps, everyone!i've used this for my science fair project, and it got me 3rd place :DHorseisle player, :3Rio (Dasher)
When a car stops the brakes heat up because of friction what is this an example of?
Conservation of energy. The energy from the moving car is transformed into heat by the action of the brakes.
When you turn on the heat in the car heat is being transferred by?
In virtually all current production cars the heater is run off hot coolant run through a small special radiator called a heater core.
When you turn on heat in your car how does heat reach you?
Its convection.
Why is heat not blowing out when you turn the heat on in your car?
Car heaters need a few moments to warm up.
Why does your car make noise when you turn it off?
It's because your car has heat inside it, and the metal is contracting in your car because no longer is heat being produced. This is a normal thing, no need to take it to the shop or even panic.Hope this helps,EmJ
When you turn your heat on in your car it makes a knocking sound?
You need to get your car checked.
Why does your car temp gage goes down when you turn the heat on 1996 Ford Taurus?
when you turn the heat on it comes out of the motor compartment in to the car,, further cooling the engine. A good thing to know if your car is running hot: turn the inside heat on full blast to help cool it down some.
Does mileage turn on a car pulled behind an RV?
No, the mileage will not turn on a car being pulled
When a diver touches a car's steering wheel on a hot day. Heat is transferred to the drivers hand by what?
Conduction :) hope it helps.
How is heat transferred through a radiator?
Convection, which is the transfer of heat by thermal currents in the air (or other medium)
Why does my car over heat everytime you turn on the ac?
You have a blocked radiator.
When car overheats why does it go down when you turn on the heat?
takes the heat away from engine low coolant??
Why does the air pressure in a car tire increase during driving?
There is friction between the tires and the surface they're being driven on. Friction creates heat, which is transferred to the air inside the tires. When the air is heated in such a manner, it expands.
