The system's total amount of kinetic energy is provided by thermal energy. It is employed to ascertain the system's internal energy. In a system it increases with increase in temperature. Hence there would be the greater speed in molecular motion in the system.
Heat Energy is the flow of thermal energy between two objects of different temperature whereas the thermal energy tells about how much is the transfer of energy due to temperature difference between two bodies.
