Heat transfer by conduction (also known as diffusion heat transfer) is the flow of thermal energy within solids and non-flowing fluids, driven by thermal ...

The Notes on Conduction Heat Transfer are, as the name suggests, a compilation of lecture notes put together over ∼ 10 years of teaching the subject.

In heat transfer analysis, we are often interested in the rate of heat transfer through a medium under steady conditions and surface temperatures. Such.

Introduction to various modes of heat transfer, Fourier's law of heat conduction, effect of temperature on thermal conductivity, steady-state conduction, ...

Conduction is the process whereby heat is transferred directly through a material, any bulk motion of the material playing no role in the transfer.
