In non-steady state, the temperature(s) is/are changing.

I suggest an excellent book by John H. Lienhard IV, which is concisely written for beginners, albeit with a few errors, (nothing egregious except on the issue of the difference between the specific heat capacity of a substance at constant pressure and at constant volume..). It is available for free online, follow this link..
