what is heat flow?

heat flow is also called heat transfer. it refers to the process of transferring thermal energy from one object or system to another due to temperature differences. it is found in all types of substances:

  • solid
  • liquid
  • gas

understanding how heat flows and being able to quantify it is beneficial across a wide range of industries and applications.
