What you learn in Theory:
Conduction (or heat conduction) is the transfer of heat energy by microscopic diffusion and collisions of particles or quasi-particles within a body due to a temperature gradient.
What you learn in Practice:
Conduction takes place in all forms of ponderable matter, such as solids, liquids, gases and plasmas.
