convection
Convection, where the transfer of thermal energy it occurs by the actual movement of the heated air in a circular motion.

Convection is the transfer of thermal energy by the movement of heated matter, such as air or water. This process occurs as warmer, less dense material rises and cooler, denser material sinks, creating a convection current that transfers heat.
This is called convection. One part of the fluid is heated and when it moves to a region of less energy it gives up some heat.
Heat transfer is the transition of thermal energy from a heated item to a cooler item.
Convection is heat transfer by the movement of heated fluids. Heat transfer is the movement of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object.
Convection.
Thermal energy moves in predictable patterns through conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between materials, convection involves the movement of heated particles in fluids, and radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.
Heat transfer is the transition of thermal energy from a heated item to a cooler item.
The transfer of thermal energy by the movement of fluid is called convection. This process occurs when heated fluid rises and cooled fluid sinks, creating a circulating flow that transfers heat from one location to another. Convection is a common mechanism in natural processes such as weather patterns and ocean currents.
Matter gains energy when it is heated due to a thermal transfer. It does not always evaporate when heated as this varies based on the specific material being heated.
When the bucket is heated, the thermal energy increases, causing the particles in the metal to gain kinetic energy. As a result, these particles vibrate more vigorously and move apart slightly, leading to thermal expansion of the metal. This increased movement can also enhance the conductivity of heat through the metal, as the energized particles transfer energy more effectively.
