This is Fourier's law of heat conduction.

Conduction, convection, and radiation all occur more rapidly over large thermal gradients.

Conduction is the most significant means of heat transfer within a solid or between solid objects in thermal contact.

Additional tests Further diagnostic tests of affected organs may be required, such as nerve conduction studies for neuropathy or an ultrasound of the liver.

In a copper atom, the outermost 4s energy zone, or conduction band, is only half filled, so many electrons are able to carry electric current.

All of these facts should be taken into consideration before analyzing the stated data, which are based on the information of institutions authorized for the conduction of statistical research.

Xylem cells are specialised for conduction of water, and first appeared in plants during their transition to land in the Silurian period more than 425 million years ago (see Cooksonia ).

The primary purpose of a pacemaker is to maintain an adequate heart rate, either because the heart's natural pacemaker is not fast enough, or there is a block in the heart's electrical conduction system.

Applications Values of the Biot number smaller than 0.1 imply that the heat conduction inside the body is much faster than the heat convection away from its surface, and temperature gradients are negligible inside of it.

It's a color sensor that detects the color frequency in front of me and sends this frequency to a chip installed at the back of my head, and I hear the color in front of me through the bone, through bone conduction.

Heat is transferred by conduction when adjacent atoms or molecules collide, or as several electrons move backwards and forwards from atom to atom in a disorganized way so as not to form a macroscopic electric current, or as phonons collide and scatter.
