Even with all the hype about forced convection cooling, many applications in the electronics cooling industry still depend on natural convection cooling. The natural buoyancy of heated air allows ...

Convection is the flow of heat energy from a region of high temperature to a region of low temperature by movement of a fluid. Convection only occurs in fluids (liquids and gases). Convection in a ...

Heat transfer is the physical act of thermal energy being exchanged between two systems by dissipating heat. Temperature and the flow of heat are the basic principles of heat transfer. The amount of ...
