The convective zone of the sun resides beneath the Photosphere and Chromosphere (the visible surface) and above the radiative zone which surrounds the core. It is within the convective zone that energy is primarily transferred outwards via convection.

What is the size of the sun's radiative zone?

nobody knows exactly how large the radiation zone is. instead, people consider that some space cameras have picked up signs of the radiation zones duties.... it is known to cool the suns core and the bursts that come out of it.

convection zone.


What is the definition of Radiative zone?

The radiation zone or radiative zone is a layer of a star's interior where energy is primarily transported toward the exterior by means of radiative diffusion, rather than by convection.[1] Energy travels through the radiation zone in the form of electromagnetic radiation as photons. Within the Sun, the radiation zone is located in the intermediate zone between the solar core at .2 of the Sun's radius and the outer convection zone at .71 of the Sun's radius.[1]Matter in a radiation zone is so dense that photons can travel only a short distance before they are absorbed or scattered by another particle, gradually shifting to longer wavelength as they do so. For this reason, it takes an average of 171,000 years for gamma rays from the core of the Sun to leave the radiation zone. Over this range, the temperature of the plasma drops from 15 million K near the core down to 1.5 million K at the base of the convection zone.[2]Within a radiative zone, the temperature gradient-the change in temperature (T) as a function of radius (r)-is given by:

Does convection occur in the core of a star?

No, Convection does not occur in the Core. For example, in the Sun, the convection occurs only after the Radiation zone. In the radiation zone the energy is transported by radiation (ie, by photons). At about 0.8 solar radius the density and temperature are not enough to transport the energy by radiation, so convection sets in.
