1 Heat Transfer Radiation Conduction Convection

2 fluid A continuous, amorphous substance whose molecules move freely past one another and that has the tendency to assume the shape of its container; a liquid or gas. http://www.thefreedictionary.com

3 Radiation (emit; flow forward) Electromagnetic waves that directly transport ENERGY through space. Sunlight is a form of radiation that is radiated through space to our planet without the aid of fluids or solids.

4 How does your body feel when you are standing in the shade? Why? What do you feel when you move and stand in a sunny area? Why? Radiation

5 Conduction (Heat Transfer Via An Object) Conduction is the transfer of energy through matter from particle to particle Conduction is most effective in solids-but it can happen in fluids. Think about a metal spoon in a cup of hot soup…What happens to the spoon? How is the temperature different if the spoon was resting on wooden kitchen table?

6 Convection (Heat Transfer Via Movement) Convection is the transfer of heat by the actual movement of the warmed matter. Convection is the transfer of heat energy in a gas or liquid by movement of currents. – It can also happen is some solids, like sand.
