Concept explainers

Conduction and Convection

When energy travels from one object to another it is said to have undergone heat transfer. Heat transfer is nothing but the transfer of thermal energy or internal energy from one thing to another, like e.g., when a vessel with water, kept on top of a burner, heats up because of the flame underneath it.

The world currently consumes about 400 quads of primary energy per year, of which 85% is from fossil sources. (Hint: you will need to account for the compounding, exponential growth effect of the 3% per year increase in consumption.)
