- Boiling of water convection comes into play while boiling water. What happens is that the cold water at the bottom heats up from the energy from the burner, and rises up. As the hot water rises, the cold water rushes in to replace it, which results in motion in the circular fashion.
- Cooking of food, cooking is the best example of heat transfer where all the three forms of heat transfer takes place.
- Microwave heat transfer occurs when microwave (light waves) or infrared energy (heat waves) are spread into the food. As the microwaves penetrate the food, they bump into molecules of water and fat, causing them to vibrate rapidly. This vibration creates friction, which creates heat that cooks the food.
-Frying an egg heat is transferred by direct contact
-Soaking/Washing dishes typically, washing a sink full of dishes involves running a sink full of hot water.
