Findings from a table-top experiment have revealed that the primary driver of a type of fluid flow called solutal convection has been overlooked. What's more, once this driver is accounted for, it ...

The magnetic fields of Earth and other planets are generated by turbulent, rotating convection in liquid metal. Liquid metals are peculiar in that they diffuse heat more readily than momentum, ...

Ocean currents, the atmosphere of Venus, the surface of the sun and a bowl of miso soup all have one thing in common: They convect. Here's how to check that out. More home experiments » Clock the ...

What do a wine glass on Earth and an International Space Station experiment have in common? Well, observing the wine glass would be one of few ways to see and understand the experiment being performed ...

DEMONSTRATE THE DIFFERENCES IN TEMPERATURE DENSITY, THROUGH A FUN EXPERIMENT. CAITLIN: TODAY WE ARE TESTING CONVECTION USING COLD WATER OR AN ICE CUBE DIED BLUE. WARM OR HOT WATER DYED RED AND ROOM ...

Electrocatalysis can be defined as the catalysis of an electrode reaction. The electrocatalytic leads to an increase of the standard rate constant of the electrode reaction, resulting in a higher ...

How can a fan make things cook quicker? By moving the heat around. Appliance Science looks at the physics of convection ovens. Essentially born with a camera in hand, Colin West McDonald has been ...
