What type of heat transfer occurs only in fluids?
Heat transfer by Brownian motion takes place only in fluids (liquids, gases, and plasmas).
Heat convection occurs in gases and liquids Heat convection does not occur in solids because solids are unable to?
transfer heat by fluid motion
Is conduction a heat transfer by direct contact of particles of matter?
Yes, whereas convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat via a liquid, and radiative heat transfer occurs through empty space (like the heat you feel from the sun).
How can heat transfer in liquids and gases be reduced?
Insulation will reduce heat transfer.
How does heat transfer through gases and liquids?
Convection needs something flowing to carry heat. That means a liquid, such as water, or a gas, such as air. Solids don't flow. They block convection.

When does Heat transfer occurs in liquid and gasses?
Heat transfer occurs whenever two or more objects of different temperatures are in contact with each other. Spilling hot water on yourself causes heat transfer from the water to you. When you drive your car the hot engine and radiator transfer heat to the surrounding air in order to cool the engine.
What are the types of heat transfers?
Conduction: Transfer of heat in solids Convection: Transfer of heat in liquid and gases (convection currents are the motion of which the heat travels in, see hot air balloon's) Radiation: Transfer of heat through vacuum (space i.e no particles)
How can heat transfer in liquids and gases be reduced?
Insulation will reduce heat transfer.
Transfer of heat by hot liquids and gases?
Convection is the transfer with in the fluid. If a container of hot liquid is touching something then it is conduction. If the heat is travelling through the air then it is radiation.
This occurs when gases heat up?
expantion
When condensation occurs water changes from what?
Gas (water vapor in the air) to liquid (on the surface).

What is heat transfer through gases called?
convection
The transfer of heat by circulation or movement of gases?
covection
