In 1812, Davy enounced that the direct cause of the phenomenon of heat is motion, and that the laws of its communication are precisely the same as the laws of the communication of motion.

The immediate cause of the phenomenon of heat, then, is motion ; and the laws of its communication are precisely the same as the laws of the communication of motion.
