Convection is the movement of molecules in fluids. The heat transfer takes place through diffusion and advection. Convection refers to the sum of diffusive and advection transfer.
Example includes hurricanes. As far as heating winds the sun warms the earth which in turn warms the air and the warmer air expands becoming less dense than the surrounding air mass. The lighter air rises and it cools due to its expansion at high-altitude pressures.
Heat can be transfered by convection, radiation or conduction.
Mostly by convection
Er, yes it can - and by convection.
Convection Currents
By conduction,convection and radiation
Conduction, convection, radiation.
The three methods heat is transferred by are:Conduction, convection and radiation.
Yep. Only when the fast moving particles are transferring in Conduction,Convection and Radiation is it called "Heat".
Heat is transfered through conduction, direct contact, convection, movement through liquids and gases, and radiation.
Convection is the movement of particles due to a gradient of energy. Heat energy is thus transfered by the moving particles.
The mechanisms to transfer heat are conduction, convection, and radiation. Heat will naturally flow from hotter to colder objects.
In conduction, heat is transferred through direct contact between materials, such as a metal spoon heating up when placed in a hot liquid. In convection, heat is transferred through the movement of fluids, like when hot air rises and cold air sinks, creating a cycle of heat transfer.
