HEAT
TRANSFER
ALL We often classify objects as cool or
warm, oftentimes by using our
OBJECTS sense of touch (hand, skin) or with
the help of a thermometer. This
POSSESS phenomenon is a result of a process
known as “heat transfer”.

The fire possesses thermal energy. As the fire
touches the pan, its energy makes the atoms
(inside the pan) move faster, increasing its
thermal energy.
As particles move from slow to
active, the temperature of the pot
increases (from cool to hot). The
transfer of the thermal energy from
the fire to the pot is called heat and
the overall process is known as
heat transfer.
 Think about it:
Why does the soup inside the pot become hot, as
well as the spoon that is left sitting in the soup?
When thermal energy is
transferred, the warmer object
cools down and the cooler
object warms up until both
objects attain the same
temperature, then heat
transfer stops.

Air is heated = less
dense (lighter) and float.

Air is cooled = denser

(heavier) and sinks to the
bottom.
