The way in which heat travels by movement or circulation?
It is called convection.
Diagram the movement of coolant and flow of heat when a heat pump is used to cool building?
We have no way of doing diagrams, sorry.
What is the transfer of heat through vacuum?
Radiation, a bit like light. That's it coming from the sun with the speed of light. Conduction is out because there is no material in the vacuum and the same for convection as there is no convenient fluid movement, air or water, coming our way from the sun.
When you touch a hot plate the transfer of heat from the plate to your hand is called .?
conductionHeat is transferred to your hand from a hot object you are touching through thermal conduction.Normally, heat transfer processes are categorized as thermal conduction, radiative transfer or convection.Heat transfer through thermal conduction is the direct transfer of kinetic energy from one molecule to the nearby molecules. Because temperature is directly proportional to kinetic energy, interactions between neighboring particles exchange energy and that exchange energy gradually works it way from the higher temperature regions to the lower temperature regions. The process of the temperature becoming the same is called thermal equilibration.Convective heat transfer occurs in fluids. If a gas, liquid, or other fluid, changes in fluid density change the buoyancy and will cause fluid to flow (a process called convection) and the heat contained in the warmer fluid is transferred to a new location by the physical movement of the fluid.Radiative transfer occurs when a hot object radiates electromagnetic energy. While the sun is an obvious source of electromagnetic energy, it is also generated in smaller amounts by any object. The hotter objects radiate more electromagnetic energy and the cooler objects absorb it. This radiative transfer is important but not as noticeable usually as the other two.
When a component becomes hot how does heat transfer from where it is in contact with the plate to the rest of the plate?

What is heat exchanger duty?
The duty of a heat exchanger can be defined in an easy way as "The amount of heat exchanged from a fluid at a higher temperature to the fluid at lower temperature in unit time by a heat exchanger is called its duty"
What is the difference between teampreature and heat?
Heat is defined as the movement of molecules in a substance. The lack of molecule movement occurs at a temperature of 0 degrees, Kelvin, or 'Absolute Zero'. Temperature is based on a set of equal steps called degrees. Degrees are a way to measure the level of heat in a substance.
The movement of coolant and the flow of heat when a heat pump is used to cool a building?
I would but there is no way that I can do a diagram

In Which way can heat be transferred by a convection current?
By water or any other fluid that may work. =).....I think
What is the method by which heat is transferred into in a fluid liquid or gas?
Transfer of heat in nature occurs through three ways: conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction takes place in solids. Convection in liquids and gases. Radiation takes place in all three media as well as in vaccum.
What influence has the movement of substances in and out of the cell has on the plant and animal cells?
Osmosis is the movement of fluid and substances in and out of a cell through the cell well. Transference is also a way for things to move in and out of a cell.
What is one other way energy is transferred from the inside of Earth to the outside other than by crustal plate movement?
Heat loss by electromagnetic radiation & by convection
What is another way of saying poor conductor of heat?
A Poor Conductor of heat is usually called an insulator.
What is the transfer of heat by movement of heated liquids or gases?
There are three basic heat transfer mechanisms: Conduction, Convection andRadiation. Heat transfer in opaque solids is just by Conduction. In gases andliquids all three mechanism can contribute to heat transfer.The Convection Mechanism of Heat Transfer is the transportation of heat bythe bulk motion of the fluid. If this motion is produced by buoyancy effects thatarise from the fluid having different temperatures (and so different densities) at different points, it is called Natural Convection. If the motion of the fluid is produced by a pressure gradient (like a fluid been forced to flow through a heated pipe),the heat convection mechanism is called Forced Convection Heat Transfer.
