Convection is heat flow by means of moving matter. It only works in fluids (i.e. liquids and gases).
Conduction is heat flow by means of direct physical contact.
Radiation is heat flow by means of electromagnetic waves. It can work through a vacuum.
Heat always naturally flows from something "hot" to something "cold". This is a form of entropy.
Conduction occurs in solids and liquids but not gases. Convection occurs in gases and liquids.
Heat energy and a temperature difference.
conduction by itself is slower to heat but conduction and convection is faster to heat
Heat (or thermal) energy is kinetic energy due to motion of atoms and molecules. It is energy that is in the process of being transferred from one object to another because of their temperature difference
Convection has a cycle of what happens. Conduction dosent have a cycle
Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between particles, while convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases). Thermal energy refers to the internal energy of an object due to its temperature, which can be transferred through conduction or convection.
Lack of a flow medium will inhibit conduction and convection.
Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between objects or substances, while convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases.

Both conduction and convection are types of heat transfer, meaning they move heat from one object to another. The difference is how they transfer the heat. Conduction transfers heat from touching solid to touching solid, while convection transfers heat in fluids (liquid or a gas).Convection transfers heat by having the warm types of fluid rise while the cold sinks. This creates something called a convection current.
Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between objects or substances. Convection, on the other hand, involves the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases). In conduction, heat is transferred through a stationary medium, while in convection, the medium itself moves to transfer heat.
