Heat Transport

Conduction, convection and radiation are all ways in which heat is transported. How does each work, and what are they useful for? Physics - Energy And Radioactivity - Learning Points. The three types of heat transport are conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy between molecules or objects in direct contact. Convection is the transfer of thermal energy by actual movement of warmed matter. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy by objects hotter than their surroundings. A Twig Curriculum Film.
