This applet is written in Korean and English so some parts don't translate. The applet on the left shows the conduction from a solid block to a solid block and the applet on the right shows convection in a gas. The red solid block is at a hot temperature and the blue solid block is at a cold temperature. You can bring the two blocks into contact by pressing the control with ?|| and reset by using the ? control. Below the bars is a graph showing the temperature at each point on the bars.
