... difference we speak of heat-flow. Systems which allow heat-flow are called diathermic, systems which do not allow heat-flow are called adiabatic. Thermos flasks are good approximations to adiabatic systems if the heat-flow is very slow compared to the time-scale of the experiment. Heat-flow is usual ...

... more than the law of conservation of energy, taking into account that heat is a form of energy. The key difference between heat and other forms of energy, however, becomes manifest in the process of conversion from one form of energy to another. Electrical energy—in the form of charge on a capacitor ...
