    Introduction Conduction is one of the three primary modes of heat transfer, the other two being convection and radiation. It involves the transfer of energy from more energetic particles of a substance to adjacent less energetic ones as a result of interactions between the particles. Mechanism In solids, conduction primarily occurs through the vibrations of…
