The Effects of Conduction in Heat Saving Devices (Build a heat-saving device that will allow a beaker of boiling water to maintain the highest possible temperature.)

Heat is the amount of energy generated by the internal motion of the molecules of a substance, while heat transfer is the movement of heat from a warmer object to a cooler one. This theory of heat transfer can be proven by observing the cooling of water in a glass. The hot water tries to transfer heat to the cooler glass. Therefore, the two substances try to reach equilibrium. There are three different types of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation. The method of transferring heat between molecules is specific to each type of heat transfer. Conduction is the transfer of…
