A fluid under Rayleigh–Bénard convection: the left picture represents the thermal field and the right picture its two-dimensional Fourier transform. Convection, especially Rayleigh–Bénard convection, where the convecting fluid is contained by two rigid horizontal plates, is a convenient example of a pattern-forming system.
In many real-life applications (e.g. heat losses at solar central receivers or cooling of photovoltaic panels), natural and forced convection occur at the same time (mixed convection). [4] Internal and external flow can also classify convection. Internal flow occurs when a fluid is enclosed by a solid boundary such as when flowing through a pipe.
Convection is caused by yeast releasing CO2. In fluid dynamics, a convection cell is the phenomenon that occurs when density differences exist within a body of liquid or gas. These density differences result in rising and/or falling convection currents, which are the key characteristics of a convection cell. When a volume of fluid is heated, it ...
On Earth, the Rayleigh number for convection within Earth's mantle is estimated to be of order 10 7, which indicates vigorous convection. This value corresponds to whole mantle convection (i.e. convection extending from the Earth's surface to the border with the core). On a global scale, surface expression of this convection is the tectonic ...
Thermal cross section with stronger lift (rising air) in darker shades of green, while red is sink (descending air). A thermal column (or thermal) is a rising mass of buoyant air, a convective current in the atmosphere, that transfers heat energy vertically. [1]

Another form of convection is forced convection. In this case, the fluid is forced to flow by using a pump, fan, or other mechanical means. Convective heat transfer , or simply, convection, is the transfer of heat from one place to another by the movement of fluids , a process that is essentially the transfer of heat via mass transfer .
When asked if running makes her happy, 3-year-old Clark Mercy Underwood had a very relatable answer. The toddler's mom, Kimberly Clark, enjoys running and trains for marathons across the world.
