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.
