Baseboard heaters depends on convection currents in air to move heat around a room.
Heat passes through liquid and gases through the process called convection. In solids however it passes through the process of conduction.
When thermal energy moves from one thing to another it is called heat energy.
Heat moves through a solid by conduction.
In thermodynamics it is called Enthalpy for all possible means: radiation, convection, diffusion. It always has a negative value.
Normally, heat moves from a higher temperature to a lower temperature. Devices that use work to move heat are called heat movers. A refrigerator is an example of a heat mover because it takes the heat from inside of the refrigerator and moves it to the outside. The 2nd law of thermodynamics allows this to occur if work is done in the process. A refrigerator does work as it moves the heat from inside the refrigerator to the warmer room.
Heat from baseboard heaters mostly move out into a room via ConvectionBaseboard heaters take in cold air near the floor. The heater warms the cold air, making expand, thus it is lighter than the surrounding air. The surrounding cold air sinks and pushes the warm air up and away from the heater. The heater then warms that air. It's a cycle of warm and cold.A small amount of transfer will also occur via "radiation" in a manner much like the heat of the sun moving to the earth. If you place your hand near some baseboard heaters you can actually feel the heat radiating from it without being within the flow of heated air coming off of the heater.
The process is called osmosis i think
the process that moves wethe process that moves weathered materials athered materials
This process is called photosynthesis.
It is called Transpiration.
Transpiration
active transport
it is a dew pont
Convection
The reverse process is called condensation.
This process is called vaporization.
This process is called Evaporation.
