Transfer of heat by the flow of heated material?

Convection oven is an example. A convector is a general name for something that transfers heat by convection.


Which type of motor is used in heat convector?

The fan in a convector is usually a single-phase induction motor.


Why is air is bad conductor?

Condution of heat is due to transfer of heat energy in the form of vibrational energy getting passed through. But in air atoms or molecues are not rigid and they move at random. So conduction is not possible but air is good convector. Same way water too is a bad coductor but a good convector of heat.


When was The Toynbee Convector created?

The Toynbee Convector was created in 1984-01.


What is a convector?

A heat exchange device that uses the heat in steam, hot water, or an electric resistance element to warm the air in a room; often called inaccurately, a radiator. Essentially, it's a space heater that transfers heat to the surrounding air by convection. And, just as an interesting side fact, in Roman mythology, the god Convector oversaw the bringing in of the crops from the fields.

Why are too thin blankets more than twice as good as one?

Because air in between them would be a bad conductor and so heat conduction is terribly affected. Though air is a good convector the heat transferred due to conduction is more compared to that of convection. So two blankets are advisable.


Where can you get a good type of fan convector around 9to12 kw and not to big in size?

Try Grainger.


Is it safe to use a heat convector or blower in a less than a year old baby room?

Only if it has a thermostat and if you also have a humidifier in the same room.


Is an oven mitt used as a convector?

Yes


Where does air flow into a convector heater?

Air flows into a convector heater through vents or grilles located near the bottom of the unit. This air is then heated by the heating element inside the convector heater before being released back into the room.


Why are air and water bad conductors of heat?

Open air molecules are far too disperse from one another to conduct heat efficiently. Heat is conducted by molecules and atoms that are very closely bonded together and vibrating at high frequencies. Open air is just not dense enough. If it were, you'd find it very hard to breathe.
