Heat transfer happens through conduction by means of
molecular agitation within the given material. Here, there is no actual motion
of the material as a whole. Thus, one of a metal rod at higher temperature
transfers energy down the colder part.
Example1: Heat transfer through the wall of a
house
Example 2: Metal spoon inside a boiling dish
