1. Forced convection is typically used to increase the rate of heat exchange.2. In forced convection the Reynolds number governs the fluid flow. 3. Forced convection can occur in both laminar and turbulent flow.4. Many types of mixing also utilize forced convection to distribute one substance within another. 5. Thermal expansion of fluids may also force convection . 6. However the distinction between natural and forced convection is particularly important for convective heat transfer. 7. He achieved this by applying the core principles of forced convection to industrial drying and textile applications. 8. The shock wave that transfers heat and mass out of explosions is also a type of forced convection . 9. When shear generated turbulence is stronger than those generated by buoyancy, the flow is in forced convection . 10. When the outer layers cool sufficiently, they become opaque and force convection to begin outside the fusing shell.
