How it's used
Focuses on the physical reaction of an object to heat rather than the act of heating something up. It is frequently used in technical or instructional contexts, such as describing material properties or kitchen equipment performance. While it describes the state of being heated, it does not imply an external agent performing the action.
Examples
These plastic bottles will deform when heated.
The pot is not heated evenly, it is hard to cook with.
Related words
Common mistake
Do not confuse this with heating something up yourself, which would be 加熱. Using 受熱 implies the object is undergoing the process of receiving heat, not that you are applying it.
