Heat Conduction In Metals

Heat Conduction In Metals

Heat conduction is one of the three basic forms of heat transfer.
According to the second law of thermodynamics, heat is always transferred from the higher energy level to the low energy level.
If the temperature of a body does not change despite continuous addition or removal of heat, this is known as steady-state heat conduction.

Learning Objectives And Experiments
