Question:
What is heat transfer?
What is heat transfer?
Show Hint
There are three types of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation.
Updated On: Dec 21, 2024
- Flow of thermal energy from low temperature reservoir to high temperature reservoir.
- Flow of energy in the form of heat from high temperature reservoir to low temperature reservoir.
- Flow of thermal energy irrespective of reservoir temperature.
- Flow of electrical energy from one to another.
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Heat transfer is the process where thermal energy flows from a high-temperature area (source) to a low-temperature area (sink) until equilibrium is reached.

- A solid slab of thickness \( H1 \) is initially at a uniform temperature \( T0 \). At time \( t = 0 \), the temperature of the top surface at \( y = H1 \) is increased to \( T1 \), while the bottom surface at \( y = 0 \) is maintained at \( T0 \) for \( t \geq 0 \). Assume heat transfer occurs only in the \( y \)-direction, and all thermal properties of the slab are constant. The time required for the temperature at \( y = \frac{H1}{2} \) to reach 99% of its final steady value is \( T1 \). If the thickness of the slab is doubled to \( H2 = 2H1 \), and the time required for the temperature at \( y = \frac{H2}{2} \) to reach 99% of its final steady value is \( T2 \), then \( \frac{T2}{T1} \) is .
