    The document discusses different modes of heat transfer and applications of thermometers. It begins by explaining how sweating cools the body through evaporation and how poor ventilation leads to increased sweating. It then discusses how sea breezes are formed and defines conduction and radiation using examples. The document also explains how a bimetallic strip in a thermostat prevents overheating of an electric iron and states differences between minimum/maximum thermometers and clinical/laboratory thermometers.
