Heat Transfer Mind Map for Class 7

This document discusses heat flow through conduction, convection, and radiation. It provides examples of good and bad heat conductors, and explains how heat flows through solids, liquids, and gases. Specific examples are given of convection currents in buildings and natural phenomena like sea breezes. Experiments are also described to demonstrate the different types of heat flow.
