What is the only type of heat transfer that occurs in fluids?

convection


Which type of heat transfer can only travel through fluids?

convection


What does convection occurs in?

Convection only occurs in fluids. Fluids are gases or liquids.


What does convection only occur in?

Convection only occurs in fluids. Fluids are gases or liquids.


What is the basic theory of heat transfer?

Heat transfer occurs by convection, conduction and radiation. In conduction, heat is transferred through collision of rapidly moving molecules. It is only through successive collision of molecules that heat transfers through an object.


Convection only occurs in due to particles moving not just heat transfer as in conduction?

Yes, convection is the transfer of heat through bulk movement of a fluid, gas or liquid. The movement can be natural caused by density differences, or can be forced.


Is the statement that radiation is the only form of heat transfer that is experienced on Earth true?

No. There are three different forms of heat transfer Radiation, Conduction and Convection. All three are experienced on Earth. Conduction occurs when heat is transferred between objects that are in direct contact with one another: some materials are better conductors than others. Convection is the up and down movement of gases and liquids caused by heat transfer. Radiation occurs when electromagnetic waves travel through space transferring heat to the object which it eventually hits.


What type of heat transfer is it when we receive sunlight?

It is radiation, as that is the only heat transfer that can occur in a vacuum (the universe).


Heat transfer by conduction occurs when?

heat transfer is made ways of three like conduction, convection, and radiation. conduction is done by the physical contact between two parts with one another( in the medium of solid). conduction due to lattice vibration or lattice-free election by the increasing kinetic and internal energy of metal.


What type of heat transfer uses a gas or a liquid to transfer the heat?

Conduction AND convection, only the latter requires a fluid.


What kind of heat transfer only by matter?

conduction


Radiation is the only type of heat transfer that can occur?

Radiation is the only type of heat transfer that can occur through vacuum (space with no particles).
