CONVECTION: The flow of heat through currents within a fluid (liquid or gas). Jupiter is comprised mostly of gases mainly 2 types of hydrogen and helium. Convection is a movement of liquid or gaseous volumes. When a mass of a fluid heats up by being upon a hot surface, its molecules are carried away and scattered causing that the mass of that fluid becomes less dense. Given that the volume of the hot fluid becomes less dense, it will be displaced vertically and/or horizontally, while the cold but denser volume of fluid sinks (the low-kinetic-energy molecules displace to the molecules with high-kinetic-energy). Through this process, the molecules of the hot fluid continuously transfer heat to the volumes of colder fluid.
What else can I help you with?
What are two examples of heat transfer?
Convection - heat transfer through liquids.Conduction - heat transfer through solids.Radiation - heat transfer through vacuum.
How does temperature affect the rate of heat transfer?
For conductive and convective heat transfer, the rate of heat transfer is proportional to the the temperature difference; if you double the difference you will double the rate of heat transfer. For radiative heat transfer, the rate of heat transfer is proportional to the difference of the 4th powers of the absolute temperatures.
What is convective heat?
Convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid.
What is the convective heat transfer coefficient of water and how does it impact the rate of heat transfer in a system?
The convective heat transfer coefficient of water is a measure of how easily heat can move through water. A higher convective heat transfer coefficient means heat can transfer more quickly. In a system, a higher convective heat transfer coefficient can increase the rate of heat transfer, making the system more efficient at exchanging heat.
What do conduction and convection have in common?
They're both modes of heat transfer via material media.
Does Jupiter moon have any heat underground?
Jupiter does not have any ground and so does not have any underground. However, Jupiter pumps out more heat from its interieor than it recieves from the sun.
How heat transfer is controlled?
There is a special mechanism that controls heat transfer.
Winds transfer heat energy by what method of heat transfer?
convection
What is convective heat transfer?
Convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid.
What are the three heat transfer methods?
Conduction, convection and radiation ;)
What is heat transferred in?
Radiation in heat transfer is one of three known modes of heat transfer: conduction (as heat transfer in solids and less effective in liquids)), Convection (as in liquids and gases), and radiation (that not necessarily require a medium for the transfer). Heat of sun is transferred to us in the vacuum space by radiation heat transfer.
What are the three methods for heat transfer?
The three methods of heat transfer are conduction (transfer of heat within a material or between materials in direct contact), convection (transfer of heat through fluid movement), and radiation (transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves).
