Conduction is the process of heat transfer through direct contact between materials. It occurs when two objects at different temperatures come into contact, and heat flows from the hotter object to the cooler one. In conduction, the energy is transferred through the vibrations and collisions of particles (atoms or molecules) within a material, without any overall movement of the material itself. It primarily occurs in solids, especially metals, as they have closely packed particles that can easily collide and transfer energy.
