Convective heat transfer, in which heat is transferred by movement of warmed matter is described by___________________?

Correct answer: B. Newton's law of cooling

  • A. Fourier's law
  • B. Newton's law of cooling
  • C. Fick's law
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Convective heat transfer involves bulk movement of a fluid and is correlated by Newton’s law of cooling, Q = hAΔT. Fourier’s law describes conduction, while Fick’s law describes mass diffusion.
