most relevant words to learn about the most important topics in the field of heat transfer
Conductivity
noun
is the intrinsic ability of a material to conduct heat.
Example: However, from k values (thermal CONDUCTIVITY of glass) calculated and comparing to the literature value, this suggests that a set of reliable results produced.
en: Conductividad
Convection
noun
Heat transfer in a fluid by movement of unevenly heated layers. Convection occurs only by means of materials, evaporation of water or fluids.
Example: The electrophoresis is carried out in a Polyacrylamide gel, gels such as this act as antiCONVECTION stabilisers, these lower the thermally driven CONVECTION currents that occur in the elecrophoretic medium.
en: Convección
Electromagnetic
adjective
Physical field, of tensor type, produced by those electrically charged elements, which affects charged particles.
Example: In essence, the message says that if they do not pay a set amount of money, then the terrorists will use anything from logic bombs to ELECTROMAGNETIC pulses to destroy the banks files.

Fixed mass
adjective
The solid state is characterized by having a defined mass, volume and shape. As long as we do not apply forces that can deform it (as would occur with substances such as plasticine) or break it, the shape of a solid object remains fixed, i.e. it cannot be compressed or expanded.
Example: On palpation a small FIXED MASS was detected, approximately 1.5cm in size

Heat Transfer
noun
Physical process of heat propagation in different media
Example: Fouling causes major problems in milk processing as it reduces HEAT TRANSFER efficiency and can present microbiological problems.
en: Transferencia de calor
inner surface
adjective
Corresponds to the sum of all the interior enclosures, i.e. the sum of each of the enclosed spaces that make up the home, which can be isolated from the outside by doors or windows.
Example: The internal fluoride ion activity controls the potential of the INNER SURFACE of the LaF 3 crystal.
en: superficie interior
Interactions
noun
Interaction is the reciprocal action between two or more objects, persons, energies or entities.
Example: The INTERACTIONS between agriculture and the physical and socioeconomic environment.
en: Interacciones
Internal energy
noun
Internal energy is defined as the energy associated with the random and disordered motion of molecules.
Example: The INTERNAL ENERGY of an ideal gas The addition of heat results in an increase in a substances internal molecular energy.
en: Energía interna
mass transfer
adjective
Mass transfer occurs when one substance is transferred through another or others on a molecular scale. This occurs when two substances with different chemical compositions are brought into contact.
Example: Movement of air across the crop allows for greater energy and MASS TRANSFER, mixing air from the mass of the atmosphere with the relatively still air directly around the plant.
en: Transferencia de masa
outer surface
adjective
The outermost part of a body that limits or separates it from its surroundings. The external aspect of a situation, which is perceived at first sight, without deepening its knowledge.
en: superficie exterior
Radiation
noun
The phenomenon of radiation is the propagation of energy in the form of electromagnetic waves or subatomic particles through a vacuum or a material medium.
Example: Incoming Solar RADIATION (Rn) When the other parameters under examination remained constant, the growth rate of the forest was seen to have a linear relationship with the amount of incoming solar RADIATION.
en: Radiación
Temperature
noun
Thermal degree or level of a body or of the atmosphere.
Example: This variation in width is caused by environmental factors such as TEMPERATURE and rainfall, which can stunt or increase growth year by year.
en: Temperatura
Thermodynamics
can act as both a noun and an adjective
Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that studies at a macroscopic level the transformation of energy, and how this energy can be converted into work (motion).
Example: Also, molecular recognition, protein folding, and THERMODYNAMICS and kinetics aspects of interactions between proteins and other solution components, such as ligands, can also be studied by NMR
en: Termodinámica
Total energy
noun
The mechanical energy of a body or physical system is the sum of its kinetic energy and potential energy.
Example: My TOTAL ENERGY expenditure will be my BMR, dietary induced thermogenesis, and the total amount of energy that I use in physical activity.
en: Energía total
Undergo
verb
To accept [a person's] authority or the will of another person, usually without resistance.
Example: Physical means of g and A Paramagnetic materials possess an unpaired electron which spin can be forced to UNDERGO a transition through the application of radiation.
