numbers, or see how this applies to a specific industrial process ?
Both can occur through stationary media (conduction/diffusion) or moving fluids (convection). Key Concepts to Remember:
This is the "fast track." When a fluid moves, it carries both thermal energy and chemical species much faster than simple diffusion or conduction alone.
In heat, atoms vibrate to pass energy. In mass, molecules physically migrate from high to low concentration areas.
The water evaporates into the air (diffusion/convection) and, if you add sugar without stirring, it slowly spreads through the liquid (diffusion).
