Editor’s note: The KOIN 6 Weather team is presenting weather and science lessons to help serve our teachers and students. Click here for more lessons. PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – We’re heating up the ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

There are various things we need for survival. Like water, food and energy. On the last point, our primary source of energy is the Sun, but our relationship with it can only be described as delicate.

Increased atmospheric moisture may alter critical weather patterns over Africa, making it more difficult for the predecessors of many Atlantic hurricanes to form, according to a new study published ...

Temperature and heat are not the same. The temperature of an object is to do with how hot or cold it is. It is measured indegrees Celsius, °C, with a thermometer. Thermal energy is to do with the ...
