Heat transmission - Prasoon Bansal - 04-16-2014

Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence.

Acoustic Insulation is any means of reducing the intensity of sound with respect to a specified source and receptor.

How Heat Is Transmitted



Conduction: the transmission of heat from one molecule to another within a material or from one material to another when they are held in direct contact.

Convection: the transfer of heat by another agent, such as air or water. Convection Currents: the flow of air that is created within the space.

Radiation: the transmission of heat through a wave motion, similar to the way light is transmitted.
