Conduction (Anthromorphemics)

The movement of heat from one object to another by direct contact.

Conduction (Anthropology)

The movement of heat from one object to another by direct contact.

Conduction (Automotive)

Method of heat transfer through direct contact.

Conduction (Boiler)

The transmission of heat through and by means of matter unaccompanied by any obvious motion of the matter.

Conduction (Climatology)

The transfer of energy by molecular motion from warmer to colder regions through a substance or between objects in direct contact, and without any net external motion

Conduction (Construction)

The direct transfer of heat energy through a material.

Conduction (Energy)

The transfer of heat energy through a material (solid, liquid or gas) by the motion of adjacent atoms and molecules without gross displacement of the particles.

Conduction (Explosives)

Conduction is the transfer of Heat or Electricity through a substance, resulting from a difference in temperature between different parts of the substance or from a difference in electric Potential. Heat may be conducted when the motions of energetic (hotter) molecules are passed on to nearby, less energetic (cooler) molecules, but a more effective method is the migration of energetic free electrons. Conduction of electricity consists of the flow of charges. Metals are thus good conductors of both heat and electricity because they have a high free-electron density.

Conduction (Green Energy)

Transfer of heat or electricity through solid materials; for example, the heat from the stove to your hand.

Conduction (Import Cars)

The transmission of heat or electricity thought, or by means of, a conductor.

Conduction (Physical Geography)

Conduction consists of energy transfer directly from atom to atom and represents the flow of energy along a temperature gradient.

Conduction (Roofing)

The flow of heat from one part of a substance to another part. A piece of iron with one end placed in a fire will soon become warm from end to end, from the transfer of heat by the actual collision of the air molecules.

Conduction (Satellite Meteorology)

The transfer of energy from one object to another due to the random motions of molecules. Conduction of heat is a consequence of the temperature differences between two objects in physical contact.

Conduction (Science)

The process in which heat energy flows from an area of higher temperature to an area of lower temperature

Conduction (Weather)

The transfer of heat through a substance by molecular action or from one substance by being in contact with another.
