Well,
If the surface area is small, say 1 m2 . And the temperature is 1000C
You lose only 2% of your heat.
But if the surface area is big/largel, say 10 m2 . And the temperature is still 1000C
You lose only 20% of your heat.
So the bigger your surface area the bigger your heat loss is.
Warning: It is a example, the calculation is not correct!

yes heat loss is affected by diameter, circumference and surface area. Heat loss depends on the surface area : volume ratio.......the larger this is the more heat is lost if a cylinder having the same volume but a different surface area...(therefre radius and circumference is different)........the cylinder having the larger surface area will loose heat fastest
Painting, Coating. Some common examples from various sciences: Biology (much cellular activity takes place at, or is affected by, the cell's surface), Chemistry (many reactions depend on surface areas, particularly for catalysts), Physics (evaporation, radiation and absorption of heat, incident light; friction)
The double pane window should be more efficient in keeping heat out. However, there is also more heat transfer from the frames if they are metal rather than vinyl. And the surface area of the double pane window is greater so it takes more time for the energy to be absorbed than the single pane window....I think:( My friend told me this information
Because carpet Barron's less heat from your feet as it has air spaces and acts asan insulater but Lino surface do exactly the opposite They absorb more heat from your legs
If a large roof is twice the area of a small roof and they are otherwise the same, the heat loss will be approximately double. If the large roof is twice as insulated as the small roof the heat loss will be similar.
