Illustration showing three forms of heat transfer in a pan on a stove. Radiant heat from the electric ring heats the pan. The pan is made of a conducting material such as aluminium or stainless steel, which conducts heat efficiently to the contents of the pan, and also into the metal handle. As liquid is heated its density decreases and it rises, creating convection currents circulating heat through the pan contents. | |
