Abstract
We are all familiar with the fact that heat energy can travel from one place to another. We can, for example, on sunny days feel the warmth from the Sun’s rays which have travelled millions of miles across space. In the winter, houses are kept warm by heat energy which travels from fires and radiators to other parts of the buildings.
