1.2.2 Convection
--due to bulk (macroscopic) motion of the fluid in
addition to the random molecular motion (diffusion)
(Fig. 1.4). Convection H.T. is a combination of
conduction within the fluid and energy transport due to
fluid motion itselfknowledge of fluid mechanics is
essential.
1.2.3 Radiation
--exchange of energies emitted from matters at finite temperatures
The surface emissive power of a blackbody: Stefan-Boltzmann
law (from theoretical analysis)
