A liquid-cooling system for a PC works a lot like the cooling system of a car. Both take advantage of a basic principle of thermodynamics ? that heat moves from warmer objects to cooler objects. As the cooler object gets warmer, the warmer object gets cooler. You can experience this principle firsthand by putting your hand flat on a cool spot on your desk for several seconds. When you lift your hand, your palm will be a little cooler, and the spot where your hand was will be a little warmer.

It's called heat transfer. In Physics, its the result of the 2nd law of thermodynamics. In the case of the hand and table, the warmer hand transfers some of its heat to the table. The result would be that the hand losses some of its heat energy & therefore becomes less warmer, and  the table becomes more warmer as it receives heat from the hand. Smiley

The principle is being used in the watersystem that robertalmario was talking about. The hand and table was just an analogy.
