Energy transfer by heating Flashcards
1
Q
What is conduction?
A
the movement of thermal energy through a material without the particles in the material moving.
2
Q
What is convection?
A
Convection happens in fluids (liquids & gases). The heat energy moves through the material as the particles in the material move through the material.
3
Q
How can energy be transferred?
A
by conduction, convection, evaporation and condensation. All these processes involve particles.
