Heat Flow.
The article needs cleaning up. Heat is not a fluid, it does not "flow".Damorbel (talk) 16:32, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
This is multiple times you've presented your personal fallacy, on thermal equilibrium Wikipedia pages.
""Heat is thermal energy associated with temperature-dependent motion of particles. The macroscopic energy equation for infinitesimal volume used in heat transfer analysis,
(∂T/∂t) /*snip
Once states and kinetics of the energy conversion and thermophysical properties are known, the fate of heat transfer is described by the above equation. These atomic-level mechanisms and kinetics are addressed in heat transfer physics. The microscopic thermal energy is stored, transported, and transformed by the principal energy carriers: phonons (p), electrons (e), fluid particles (f), and photons (ph).""
In layman's terms, I pour hot water into cold water, and via convection, you get tepid water.
Read this article again, where it says convection.
Heat "flows", that does an adequate job of conveying the meaning in writing. For everything else there's pictures.
Sorry if I sound harsh, but, the article is good, and doesn't deserve being yelled at. I for one value our editorial overlords.
Have a nice day. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.199.238.133 (talk) 18:08, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
