Heat flow transfer is the energy exchanged between materials as a result of a temperature difference.
FactSnippet No. 2,413,768 |
Heat flow transfer is a process function, as opposed to functions of state; therefore, the amount of heat transferred in a thermodynamic process that changes the state of a system depends on how that process occurs, not only the net difference between the initial and final states of the process.
