A vacuum flask uses a double-walled design with a vacuum between the walls to minimize heat transfer through conduction or convection. This insulation helps retain the heat of the water inside, keeping it hot for a longer period of time.
In a vacuum flask, heat transfer occurs through radiation. When hot water is put into a vacuum flask, the vacuum between the inner and outer layers prevents heat transfer through conduction or convection. The reflective barrier reflects heat radiation back towards the liquid, keeping it hot for a longer time compared to a regular container.
Flasks keep drinks hot by utilizing a vacuum-sealed design that prevents heat transfer. The vacuum layer acts as insulation, reducing heat loss or gain. In addition, the flask is usually made from materials with low thermal conductivity to further minimize temperature changes.
thermos flask actually works on the principle of insulator. air is trapped between 2 walls of the flask. air being a bad conductor of heat traps it between the walls. this keeps the material in the flask hot for a longer period.add. Actually, usually there is a vacuum between the two walls of the flask, for this is a better insulator than air. hence the name 'vacuum flask'.
Materials with low thermal conductivity such as foam, fiberglass, or double-walled stainless steel are good insulators to keep water hot. Ensuring a thick layer of insulation around the water container or using a vacuum-sealed flask can also help maintain the water temperature for longer periods.
A thermos flask made from silver glass with a vacuum between the walls helps to keep the contents hot or cold by minimizing heat transfer through conduction, convection, and radiation. The reflective silver inner lining reduces heat loss due to radiation, while the vacuum layer acts as an insulator to prevent heat transfer through conduction and convection, helping to maintain the temperature of the contents for an extended period of time.
Insulation
Thermos flask or vacuum flask.
A Thermos/vacuum flask is probably the best for small volumes of hot water (1 - 2 pints) After that any receptacle that is well insulated will maintain the temperature for a limited time.
A vacuum is maintained in a thermos flask in order to prevent heat transfer by conduction and convection. The absence of air molecules in the vacuum reduces the amount of heat that can be transferred through these processes, helping to keep the contents of the flask hot or cold for longer periods of time.

There is no way to permanently store heat. The most you can expect, from a high-quality vacuum flask, is to keep the liquid cold, or hot, for a fairly long time. But gradually, some heat will seep in, or out, until the temperature in the vacuum flask will be equal to the temperature of the surroundings.
Conduction in a thermos flask is minimized through the use of a vacuum layer between two walls of the flask. This vacuum layer prevents heat transfer by conduction, as there are no molecules present to transfer the heat. This helps to keep the contents of the flask hot or cold for an extended period of time.
A vacuum flask is designed with a double-walled construction. The inner wall is coated with a reflective coating to prevent radiation heat transfer, while the space between the walls is vacuum-sealed to prevent heat conduction. This insulation helps to maintain the temperature of the liquid inside, whether hot or cold.
