heat transfers
Warmth changes location
Heat transfers describes the movement of thermal energy from one place, object, or substance to another.
The phrase typically appears in scientific contexts discussing conduction, convection, or radiation: Heat transfers from the burner to the pot.
As a noun, heat transfers can mean decals or images applied to surfaces using heat and pressure.
