Conduction is the direct flow of heat from your warm body into your colder surroundings. In winter, all that heat escaping ...

The field of handheld dry herb technology has changed a lot. It has gone from simple heating elements to complex, ...

Lab instrumentation has been selected from TecQuipment, a designer of thermal/fluids devices for use in higher education. Students study the three modes of heat transfer - conduction, convection and ...

In some cases, heat conduction can even be dramatically limited by the fact that different isotopes of an element are built into the material -- i.e. similar atoms with different numbers of neutrons.

Zero-thermal-expansion (ZTE) materials are widely used in precision optics, cryogenic equipment and sensors, where even small ...

When room-temperature washers are placed in hot water, the temperature of the washers increases and the temperature of the water decreases. Energy from the water is transferred to the washers. When ...
