Heat Transfer - Overview

Heat transfer is the exchange of thermal energy between physical systems. The rate of transfer is dependent on the temperature difference (thermal gradient) between the systems, and conductive, convective, and radiative properties of the material. Conduction is the transfer of energy between objects that are in direct physical contact. Convection is the transfer of energy between objects that are not in direct contact through the movement of fluids. Radiative heat transfer is the transfer of energy by radiation, which occurs due to a temperature difference between the systems.
