The transfer of heat by fluid?
The transfer of heat by fluid is convection.
Is convection the main type of heat transfer?
No, in the universe radiation heat transfer is by far the largest transfer.
Is conduction a heat transfer by direct contact of particles of matter?
Yes, whereas convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat via a liquid, and radiative heat transfer occurs through empty space (like the heat you feel from the sun).
What is the difference between heat transfer and mass transfer?
Heat transfer deals with the movement of heat and temperature gradients. The three types of heat transfer are conduction, convection, and radiation. Mass transfer deals with concentrations of a particular substance. Types of mass transfer include diffusion and convection.
How can heat transfer in liquids and gases be reduced?
Insulation will reduce heat transfer.
Where can one purchase a heat transfer machine?
One can buy a heat transfer machine from a few online retailers. One may wish to look on eBay, or Amazon for a transfer machine that will suit your printing needs.
Can you get wet wearing wet suit?
Yes you get wet wearing a wet suit. Though it's a called a wet suit it's main properties are to keep you warmer and provided buoyancy
Diagram of a energy transfer in and out of a space suit?
You just draw arrows surrounding the space suit clockwise so that it shows the way the heat circulates
What is an example of water as an insulator?
Wetsuits are a great example of how water is an insulator. when the wet suit gets wet, it puts a thin layer of water between the suit and your skin. This layer of water keeps your body heat in, and the cold water out.
What adjective descirbes these three words suit paint and floor?
wet suit, wet paint, wet floor.
What is convective heat transfer?
Convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid.
Why do birds swell their feathers in winters?
Air is an insulator. Air trapped in the puffed up feathers of the bird is warmed by the birds own body heat and stays trapped close to the birds skin. This is similar to how a divers wet suit works. The water of a wet suit is warmed by the heat of the divers body and is trapped within the space between the skin and the material of the wet suit which insulates the diver from the much colder water surrounding them.
Why was Darth Vader's suit wet during his death scene in Return of the Jedi?
Darth Vader's suit wasn't wet.
How do you wrte a sentence with the word cement?
Any holes in your wet suit can be fixed using commercial wet suit cement.
What are two examples of heat transfer?
Convection - heat transfer through liquids.Conduction - heat transfer through solids.Radiation - heat transfer through vacuum.
What is convective heat?
Convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid.
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.
