Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary mechanism of heat transfer in fluids?
  • Step 1: Understand that heat can move from one place to another in different ways.
  • Step 2: Identify the three main ways heat transfers: conduction, convection, and radiation.
  • Step 3: Focus on fluids, which include liquids and gases.
  • Step 4: Learn that in fluids, heat transfer mainly happens through convection.
  • Step 5: Convection occurs when warmer parts of the fluid rise and cooler parts sink, creating a flow that transfers heat.
