Heat Transfer Notes
==== Heat Transfer Foldable- Make a square out of copy paper. Fold the square diagonally- one corner to the opposite corner- Unfold and fold the other 2 opposite corners. Unfold and now fold each corner to the center of the paper. On the outside flaps, write down the 4 types of heat transfer. On the inside of each flap, draw a picture demonstrating the type of heat transfer. Under each flap, write the definition of the different heat transfers. The following will give you examples...but DO NOT copy the information other than the 4 types of Heat Transfer. ====
