Bremen Universum - Maddi

 I found the heat transmission exhibit to be pretty interesting. It had 5 different materials on the table and thermal imaging foil on all of them. As I placed my hand on the foil, I noticed right away that my handprint stayed on the foil for different periods of time. This is because the level of heat transmission varies between the materials. So a material with a high level of heat transmission would keep color in the foil for a shorter amount of time. Also, some materials feel cooler cause they dissipate the heat faster.

I wonder how many applications of this concept can be found in the world around us, such as our power systems and vehicles.

How neat! I wonder what specific properties of these materials affect heat transmission.
