Why glass is used to make a thermos flask ? |
|
Answer» ss is silvered (like a mirror) to reduce infrared radiation. The combination of a VACUUM and the silvering greatly reduces heat transfer by convection, conduction and radiation. So why do HOT things in a thermos EVER COOL down? You can see in the figure TWO paths for heat transfer.________________________________ |
