    Mode of heat transfer between two cubes and to its surroundings

    Hi, thanks a lot for your reply and for your help, which I appreciate. How could I mathematically (with a formula) explain that convection does not play a role here? I am trying to determine whether heat radiates from the hot paraffin cube (ca. 100°C) to the other cube or to the surrounding...
