👉 Contangential refers to a material that is able to transmit heat, typically through its surface. It is often used in applications where heat transfer is important, such as in heating and cooling systems or for insulation purposes. For example, in a heating system, a contangential material like copper wire can be used to distribute the heat evenly throughout a building's walls. In an insulated interior space, this type of material would be placed on top of a metal plate to increase its conductivity and reduce energy
