Mechanisms of heat transfer

Heat transfer is an essential discipline in thermal engineering that deals with the transfer, conversion, usability, and creation of heat or thermal energy. Transfer of heat occurs through various mechanisms like conduction, convection, radiation, and change of phases. All these mechanisms have distinct characteristics, but these mechanisms can simultaneously occur in an identical system.

A solid steel cube is stored in a freezer, where the temperature is −20.0 ̊C. While the cube is in the freezer, you measure its side length (L) to be 1.75050 meters. The cube is then placed outside for a long time, so that the temperature of the cube reaches the temperature of the air outside.
