Think of a pot of boiling water. The burner makes the heat, the heat rises, and the cold water replaces it, then the cold water gets hotter and rises. It's a cycle

Convection is the transfer of heat through what?
Convection is "the transfer of heat through the motion of molecules in a fluid."
How does draughts transfer heat energy?
draughts transfer heat energy through convection
What is heat transfer through direct contact?
Conductivity.
Does radiation heat the earth through convection?
Yes. Radiation waves given off by the sun, heat the Earth through convection. Convection is the movement of heat transfer through liquids or gases, as seen in this example.
How is heat transfer by radiation different form heat transfer by convection and conduction?
Radiation requires neither contact (through which conduction transfers heat) nor mass flow or movement (through which convection transfers heat). Only radiation can take place in a vacuum. Convection and conduction both require a material medium for the heat transfer to occur. Only radiation can transfer thermal energy through the vacuum of space.
Convection is the transfer of heat through what?
Convection is "the transfer of heat through the motion of molecules in a fluid."
What are two examples of heat transfer?
Convection - heat transfer through liquids.Conduction - heat transfer through solids.Radiation - heat transfer through vacuum.
Heat convection what is?
Convection is the transfer of heat by circulation through a gas or liquid.
What is heat convection?
Convection is the transfer of heat by circulation through a gas or liquid.
How does heat transfer energy?
draughts transfer heat energy through convection
What is the transfer of heat through called?
Convection
How does draughts transfer heat energy?
draughts transfer heat energy through convection
What is the methods of heat transfer?
Heat can be transferred in 3 ways: Conduction, or through direct contact, Convection, or transfer of heat through a fluid, or Radiation, or heat transfer through space in the form of electromagnetic waves.
What heat transfer can travel through a fluid?
Heat can transfer through a fluid by conduction and/or convection (with convection being the most efficient). If the fluid is a gas then heat can also transfer through it by radiation (but this does not work in liquid fluids).
Differentiate the three methods of heat transfer?
Convection, radiation, and conduction are the 3 types of heat transfer... Compare They all transfer heat from a hotter mass to a cooler mass. Contrast Conduction transfers heat through solids. Convection transfers heat through liquids and gases. Radiation transfers heat through electromagnetic waves.
What is heat transfer through gases called?
convection
What transfer of heat through fluids called?
Convection
