Heater Is neither Conduction nor Convection... The Questions seems to be wrong... If you ask Whether the heat given by a heater is lost by conduction or Convection, then the answer is: YES! In a heater the heat is lost by all three processes namely Conduction , Convection and Radiation.

Is a portable heater conduction convection or radiation?

A portable heater primarily uses convection to transfer heat into a room. Air is heated inside the heater, rises, and then circulates throughout the space. Some heaters also emit radiation, where infrared waves directly heat objects in the room, but convection is the main mechanism.

What two types of of heat transfer occur in a space heater?

In a space heater, conduction and convection are the two types of heat transfer that occur. Conduction transfers heat through direct contact between the heater's heating element and the surrounding air or objects, while convection involves the circulation of heated air in the room due to the warm air rising and cool air sinking.

What are the three forms of heat transfer?

The three forms of heat transfer are conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact of particles, convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases, and radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.
