Heat transfer worksheets

£3.00

Set of 4 straightforward worksheets with notes and questions testing their understanding of conduction, convection and radiation. Best done after the "standard" demonstrations. The "Convection stops!" worksheet is a "What if....?" scenario where students have to think about what would happen if convection didn't happen and fill in a mock newspaper front page. This could be adapted for conduction and radiation too.
