Physics 212 Lecture: "Convection." Jan 5, 1997

• Convection is one of three mechanisms for transferring conv from one place to another
• Convection depends upon circulating currents of fluid
• Natural convection: a fluid is conved, it expands, and so becomes less dense -- thus, it moves upwards due a buoyant force; after losing conv to its surroundings, itj cools off, becomes more dense, and sinks back down

This lecture discusses material in Chapter 13 of Cutnell and Johnson.
