Heat transfer occurs through conduction and convection from "summary" of Physics of the Human Body by Richard P. McCall

Heat transfer is a fundamental process that plays a crucial role in various aspects of our daily lives, including the functioning of the human body. Conduction and convection are two primary mechanisms through which heat is transferred from one object to another. Conduction involves the transfer of heat through a material or between materials that are in direct contact with each other. In this process, the particles within the material vibrate and collide with each other, transferring thermal energy from the higher temperature side to the lower temperature side. This mechanism is commonly observed when a hot object is placed in contact with a cooler object, resulting in the transfer of heat until thermal equilibrium is reached. On the other hand, convection is the transfer of heat ...
