What is convective heat transfer?

Convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid.


What is the Formula for calculating heat transfer by convection?

heat rate = characteristic of fluid and structures * area * difference in temperature between surface and bulk fluid


What are two examples of heat transfer?

Convection - heat transfer through liquids.Conduction - heat transfer through solids.Radiation - heat transfer through vacuum.


What unit of measurement is used to record heat transfer?

Heat transfer is measured in Joules. At times, teachers look for calories, so the conversion for Calories to Joules is 1 calorie = 4.184 joules. The formula used for heat transfer is q = m(T)C .... q is amount of heat transferred, m is mass, T is the change in temperature, C is the specific heat.


What is convective heat?

Convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid.


How does temperature affect the rate of heat transfer?

For conductive and convective heat transfer, the rate of heat transfer is proportional to the the temperature difference; if you double the difference you will double the rate of heat transfer. For radiative heat transfer, the rate of heat transfer is proportional to the difference of the 4th powers of the absolute temperatures.


The transfer of heat by fluid?

The transfer of heat by fluid is convection.


What do conduction and convection have in common?

They're both modes of heat transfer via material media.


Winds transfer heat energy by what method of heat transfer?

convection


How heat transfer is controlled?

There is a special mechanism that controls heat transfer.


Is convection the main type of heat transfer?

No, in the universe radiation heat transfer is by far the largest transfer.


Is conduction a heat transfer by direct contact of particles of matter?

Yes, whereas convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat via a liquid, and radiative heat transfer occurs through empty space (like the heat you feel from the sun).
