The flow that transfers heat within a fluid?

Convection


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.


What is the transfer of heat through gases and liquids called?

Heat can be transferred through liquids and gases by means of conduction as well as conduction.The difference is that convection is not possible in solids.ConductionDuring conduction, heat is transferred due to the vibration of the molecules. A molecule at a higher temperature has more energy, and hence vibrates faster. It collides with other atoms and passes energy onto it. The chain continues and heat is transferred without any appreciable movement of molecules.ConvectionIn convection, the hotter particles move around in the fluid, transferring energy to the colder molecules. For example, when heating water in a vessel on a stove, the water at the bottom is heated first. It rises to the top and the cooler water flows down to be heated. This continues and heat is transferred throughout the fluid. Heat is transferred with the movement of molecules.


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.


Energy is usually transferred in fluids by radiation true or false?

False radiation is the transfer of energy through space.

Heat transferred by warm currents within a fluid is called what?

Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by "warm currents". The hotter fluid will rise, pushing the cooler fluid down, which then in turn gets heated, creating a continuous cycle.
