energy is transferred through moving currents of warmer air or liquid
Heat is transferred by the movement of a liquid or gas.
In the convective transfer of heat, heat energy from the source is converted to the motion of particles in the convective medium (say, air). When these energized particles impact the target object, the object heats up. Heating by convection requires the presence of an intermediary fluid or gaseous medium, whereas heating via radiation or conduction does not.
convectionQ: What is the major way that heat is transferred into the troposphere?A: Convection
Convection
convection (from the movement of fluids), conduction (through solids), and radiation (through air and space).
Heat energy can be transferred from a source to a receiver by conduction, convection, and radiation.
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.
Heat transferred in convection occurs through movements of fluids.

Convection
"Conduct" and "convection" are two different processes of heat transfer. When heat is transferred through a gas, the primary mechanism is convection.
Heat is transferred through particles by radiation through space or conduction by touch or convection when the heat flows in a circular pattern
Yes. Convection currents move hot materials to other places.
Radiation, convection and conduction
You don't transfer convection. Rather, convection is a process whereby heat energy is transferred.
Heat moves through liquids and gases through conduction. Heat is thermal energy. It can be transferred from one place to another by radiation, convection and conduction.
