Energy can be transferred by conduction and convection
CONDUCTION=VIBRATING PARTICLES PASS ON KINETIC ENERGY TO NEIGHBOURING PARTICLES
CONVECTION= WHEN PARTICLES MOVE FROM HOTTER REGIONS TO COLDER REGIONS, ALL DUE TO A CHANGE IN DENSITY
Energy can also be transferred through evaporation and condensation
EVAPORATION= LIQUID TO GAS
CONDENSATION=GAS TO LIQUID
The cooling effect from evaporation: The faster liquid particles which have more kinetic energy break away from the weak attraction between particles in the liquid, and so the liquid is cooler because the average kinetic energy is now decreased. Factors which affect evaporation include surface area, temperature, and a draught of air on the liquid.
