- (conduce) contribute: be conducive to; "The use of computers in the classroom lead to better writing"
- (conduction) the transmission of heat or electricity or sound
- (Conduction (cardiology)) The normal electrical conduction of the heart allows electrical propagation to be transmitted from the Sinoatrial Node through both atria and forward to the Atrioventricular Node. ...
- (Conduction (heat)) In heat transfer, conduction (or heat conduction) is the transfer of thermal energy between neighboring molecules in a substance due to a temperature gradient. ...
- (conduce) To contribute or lead to a specific result
- (conducing) That conduces to a given purpose or end result; That conduces to a desired purpose; beneficial, helpful
- (CONDUCE) employ, take on, hire
- (Conduction) The transmission or conveying of something through a medium or passage, especially the transmission of electric charge or heat through a conducting medium without perceptible motion of the medium itself.
- (Conduction) Heat transfer through a solid material by contact of one molecule to the next. Heat flows from a higher-temperature area to a lower-temperature one.
- Conduction is the direct flow of heat through a material resulting from physical contact. The transfer of heat by conduction is caused by molecular motion in which molecules transfer their energy to adjoining molecules and increase their temperature.
- (Conduction) Energy transfer from one material to another by direct contact.
- (Conduction) The flow of heat from one part of a substance to another part. A piece of iron with one end placed in a fire will soon become warm from end to end due to the transfer of heat by the actual collision of the air molecules.
- (CONDUCTION) Heat transfer from a hot object to a colder object through direct contact.
- (Conduction) The transfer of heat energy through a material (solid, liquid or gas) by the motion of adjacent atoms and molecules without gross displacement of the particles.
- (Conduction) One of the basic ways of transferring energy, caused by the motion of atoms and electrons in a solid (there is no motion of the material as a whole). ...
- (Conduction) is the flow of heat directly through a solid material. The measure of a conductor's efficiency is based on how rapidly heat moves through it. The better conductor a material is, the worse insulator it is.
- (CONDUCTION) A process whereby heat is transmitted through matter without any obvious motion of that matter.
- (Conduction) A mode of heat transfer in which heat energy is transferred within an object itself or between objects in contact. When a cold spoon is left in a pot of boiling water, the spoon eventually becomes hot. This is an example of conduction. ...
- (Conduction) Flow of heat in response to a temperature gradient within an object or between objects that are in physical contact.
- (Conduction) In cooking, the method of heat transfer in which heat is transmitted to food from a pot or pan, oven walls or racks.
- (Conduction) Refers to heat flow through a solid material such as a window frame or glass. In the winter, the interior surface of a window is warmed by the home’s heating system and that heat is conducted (or transferred) to the cooler outdoors.
- (Conduction) The direct transfer of heat through building elements such as walls, ceilings, floors, and windows. This is a major area of home heat loss.
- (Conduction) The process of energy transfer through a solid. In an exhaust system this is typically heat.
- (Conduction) The transfer of heat from one item to something touching it or a cooler part of the first item.
- (Conduction) The way heat moves through a solid by vibration of particles (atoms, molecules) and the way an electric current is carried through substances by the movement of free electrons.
