Question

What happens in convection mode of heat transfer?

Answer 1

Convection mode of heat transfer:

1. Convection is the process of transferring heat from one location to another by moving medium particles.
2. Convection is the process of transferring heat through the bulk movement of molecules in fluids like gases and liquids.
3. The initial heat transfer between the object and the fluid occurs via conduction, but the bulk heat transfer occurs due to fluid motion.
4. Heat is transferred in the liquids and gases from a higher temperature region to a lower temperature region during this process.
5. Convection heat transfer occurs as a result of the movement of molecules or mass transfer.
