Convection Heat Transfer Visualization
Natural Convection
Forced Convection
Trade Winds
Day: Sea Breeze
Convection Information
Current mode: Natural Convection
Heat transfer direction: From land to water
Air flow pattern: Sea breeze (land to water)
Key Concepts
Natural convection occurs due to density differences caused by temperature variations
Forced convection uses mechanical means to move fluid
Trade winds result from Earth's rotation and uneven solar heating
Natural Convection
Examples: Sea breeze, land breeze, rising steam
Forced Convection
Examples: HVAC systems, blood circulation, car radiators
Trade Winds
Global convection patterns modified by Earth's rotation
