and Convection- Convection in heat exchangers occurs through the bulk motion of the fluid
against the surface of the wall, thus transferring thermal energy.
At university
Boiling of water at laboratory
When you put BEAKER of water on the HEATING MANTLE to boil, for example, conduction
heat warms thBEAKER, which then heats the water molecules within. Convection causes
these molecules to migrate out from the pot's interior as they heat up and are replaced by
cooler ones. Within the water, this constant stream causes convection heat transfer.
MODES OF HEAT TRANSFER THAT HAPPENS IN LABORATORY IS CONDUCTION AND
CONVECTION
