Can understanding particle theory and heat transfer modes help you build efficient devices to improve our daily lives?
Heat is a form of energy that can be transformed and transferred. These processes can be explained using particle theory of matter.
Design (or improve on a design) and build a solar oven that will cook food and sterilize water by applying knowledge of heat transfer by convection, conduction and radiation.
