All objects can experience heat flow, or heat transfer. You have conduction where heat is transferred from an outside source and into another molecule to molecule, by the two objects touching (ice into a glass of water, a pot set onto a hot element). Radiation is very similar but the two sources do not touch, this is how the sun heats the Earth! Also humans radiate their own body heat from blood flow and internal movement. The last is convection, this is like a convection oven and works the same way as clouds are formed. Simply put hot air rises, cool air falls, and these two meet in the middle heat and cool each other and create a type of spiral or pathway because of it, effectively trapping heat to the surface (so a blanket over a body or a convection oven).
If by 'heat flow' you mean the radiation form of heat, so heat flows without physical touch from one source to another, then any form of object that has the potential to radiate or to absorb radiation heat experiences this. Earth radiates heat, as does the sun, and every living thing.
What else can I help you with?
When does the heat flow between two objects stop?
Heat flow between two objects stops when they reach thermal equilibrium, which means they are at the same temperature and no further heat transfer occurs. At this point, the heat energy is evenly distributed between the two objects, resulting in no net heat flow between them.
Do heat and cold flow between objects?
Yes, heat and cold flow between objects due to the difference in temperature. Heat will flow from the hotter object to the colder object until thermal equilibrium is reached, leading to the transfer of energy.
Which types of heat transfer invlove heat flow from objects to colder objects?
Conduction, convection, and radiation are all types of heat transfer that involve heat flow from objects to colder objects. Conduction is the transfer of heat through a material due to direct contact, convection is the transfer of heat through a fluid (liquid or gas), and radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.
Which type of heat transferred involve heat flow from hot objects to colder objects?
Convection and Conduction. Convection is the movement of hot gas to areas where it is colder, and conduction is the direct transfer of heat from a hot object to another object that is touching it.
In which direction does heat flow between warmer objects and cooler objects?
Heat flows from warmer objects to cooler objects in the direction of decreasing temperature, following the natural gradient to achieve thermal equilibrium.
Does heat flow cooler or smaller object?
Heat flow's from cooler objects.
Does heat flow up to down?
No. Heat is not affected by gravity. Heat flows from hotter objects to colder objects.
When does the heat flow between two objects stop?
Heat flow between two objects stops when they reach thermal equilibrium, which means they are at the same temperature and no further heat transfer occurs. At this point, the heat energy is evenly distributed between the two objects, resulting in no net heat flow between them.
Do heat and cold flow between objects?
Yes, heat and cold flow between objects due to the difference in temperature. Heat will flow from the hotter object to the colder object until thermal equilibrium is reached, leading to the transfer of energy.

How is heat naturally transfered between objects?
The mechanisms to transfer heat are conduction, convection, and radiation. Heat will naturally flow from hotter to colder objects.
How long does heat flow?
Until the objects touching have equal temperatures.
Which type of heat transferred involve heat flow from hot objects to colder objects?
Convection and Conduction. Convection is the movement of hot gas to areas where it is colder, and conduction is the direct transfer of heat from a hot object to another object that is touching it.
In which direction does heat flow between warmer objects and cooler objects?
Heat flows from warmer objects to cooler objects in the direction of decreasing temperature, following the natural gradient to achieve thermal equilibrium.
Does heat energy flow indefinitely?
No, heat energy does not flow indefinitely. It will continue to flow until a thermal equilibrium is reached where all objects involved reach the same temperature. Once this equilibrium is achieved, there will be no further flow of heat energy.
What determines the flow of heat between two objects in contact?
The flow of heat between two objects in contact is determined by the temperature difference between the two objects, the thermal conductivity of the materials involved, and the surface area of contact. Heat will flow from the object with a higher temperature to the one with a lower temperature until thermal equilibrium is reached.
Which direction does heat flow from when both temperatures are the same?
When both temperatures are the same, heat does NOT flow between objects.
