What is Thermal Transfer?
In layman's term, thermal transfer is simply the ability to take temperature from one point to another. To have this definition a little more explicit, I will say that thermal transfer is the action of evacuating a certain temperature or to hold it to attain a precise end.An simple example of heat transfer happens every time you are cooking. When you put a the pot over the cooker, heat is transferred to the pot by conduction. At first, the pot is cold, then it gets heated as the heat get transferred to it continuously, up to the point where both have the same temperature.
What is thermal transfer used for in industry?
We count numerous examples where we could not do without thermal transfer as it is at the heart of many industrial processes.Taking a car's engine for example, it is necessary that it get cooled as it works because if the temperature of the engine were simply left to cool naturally without any system in place, it will simply break.
That is the reason why in Automotive, heat transfer is a MUST, not only because of the engine since the whole interior of the cars and its mechanic need a certain temperature regulation while it functions.
A proper Heat Transfer Design not only enhance the efficiency of the engine but also extend its life expectancy.
A car has in itself many processes that actually require thermal transfer such as the exhaust system, the ventilation, the air conditioning system, the heat exchangers and the battery cooling system.
