Which of the following concepts explains heat transfer through the bulk movement of fluids (liquids or gases)?
- AConduction
- BConvection
- CReflection
- DRadiation
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
- Convection is the mode of heat transfer that takes place in fluids (liquids and gases) due to the actual movement of the particles or bulk fluid matter.
* Conduction occurs primarily in solids through direct molecular contact without actual movement of the matter.
* Radiation is the transfer of heat energy via electromagnetic waves and does not require any material medium.
* Reflection is a phenomenon where light or waves bounce back from a surface.
