Conduction
Conduction is the transfer of energy from the more
energetic to the less energetic particles of a substance
due to interactions between the particles.

High energy
particles
due to T1

Less energy
particles
due to T2

Energy transfer due to energy transfer by the
random molecular motion + bulk motion of the fluid
(Diffusion) (Advection)
