What causes the transfer of thermal energy during convection?
The movement of matter during convection is what transfers thermal energy.The air or liquid currents help transferring thermal energy through convection as the currents of higher temperature are of less density (lighter) and move upwards while that of less temperature are of higher density (heavier) and move downwards.Convective heat transfer, often referred to simply as convection, is the transfer of heat from one place to another by the movement of fluids (liquids or gases). Convection is usually the dominant form of heat transfer in liquids and gases.
How is heat transfer by radiation different form heat transfer by convection and conduction?
Radiation requires neither contact (through which conduction transfers heat) nor mass flow or movement (through which convection transfers heat). Only radiation can take place in a vacuum. Convection and conduction both require a material medium for the heat transfer to occur. Only radiation can transfer thermal energy through the vacuum of space.
What is the transfer of energy from place to place by the movement of heated gas or liquid?
CONVECTION
What are three forms of energy transfer?
Conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is when heat is transferred directly between materials. convection occurs when heated materials move from one place to another heating matter along the way. Radiation is when waves of heat move through space.
What materials allows convection to take place?
water/gasses
What materials does thermal transfer by convection take place in?
Convection
The type of thermal energy transfer that takes place in fluids is mostly?
Mode of energy transfer in fluids is convection.
The transfer of thermal energy by particles moving from one place to another is?
Heat

Is convection current kinetic energy before transferring?
In a convection current the kinetic energy will most likely be a small part of the total as the rate of flow won't be very high. Most heat transfer in convection will be simply thermal energy transfer, ie from a warmer place to a cooler one.
The transfer of thermal energy when particles of a fluid move from one place to another?
This process is known to be convection. Actually water is good convector but a bad condutor.
Temperature is the transfer of thermal energy from one object to another?
The transfer of thermal energy when particles of a fluid move from one place to another is convection. Temperature is a measure of how hot or cold an object is compared to a reference point.Another AnswerNo. Heat (the term, 'thermal energy', is obsolete) is defined as 'energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body'. So a temperature difference is necessary for heat transfer to take place.It is not heat it is convection.
How is heat transfer by radiation different form heat transfer by convection and conduction?
Radiation requires neither contact (through which conduction transfers heat) nor mass flow or movement (through which convection transfers heat). Only radiation can take place in a vacuum. Convection and conduction both require a material medium for the heat transfer to occur. Only radiation can transfer thermal energy through the vacuum of space.
What is the transfer of thermal energy from one object to another due to a difference in temperature is known as?
The transfer of thermal energy when particles of a fluid move from one place to another is convection. Temperature is a measure of how hot or cold an object is compared to a reference point.Another AnswerNo. Heat (the term, 'thermal energy', is obsolete) is defined as 'energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body'.

What is unique about the materials convection takes place in?
it is cool
