HEAT TRANSFERÉ
can be accomplished through
four means:
(1)Conduction: fast-moving
molecules of substance 1 collide with neighboring molecules of substance 2, which are moving more
slowly. This forces the molecules of substance 2 to
speed up. Substance 2 becomes hotter as a result of
its physical contact with substance 1.
This form of heat transfer often occurs between the atmosphere
and the earthÕs surface
and is also known as sensible heat flux.
