Description
Heat is a form of energy. The relationship between heat and work provides the foundation of thermodynamics, which describes transformations from an initial to a final state of a system. In energy transformations heat may pass through the boundary of the system, at an external heat flow of deQ/dt.
Abbreviation: Q [J]
Reference: Energy
