How does the heating coil transfer heat to the air?
The heating coil transfers heat to the air through several mechanisms. Firstly, conduction occurs when the heated coil directly transfers heat to the air molecules that are in contact with it. The metal of the coil is a good conductor of heat, and as the air passes over it, the heat is transferred. Secondly, convection takes place as the warmed air rises and is replaced by cooler air, creating a continuous flow of heat transfer.
Additionally, if the coil has fins attached, they increase the surface area, enhancing the heat transfer efficiency. This allows for more contact between the coil and the air, facilitating better heat exchange. For example, in a furnace, the heating coil gets very hot due to the heat source. When the blower forces air across the coil, the heat is quickly transferred to the air, which is then distributed throughout the space to raise the temperature. The combination of these processes enables the efficient transfer of heat from the heating coil to the air in an HVAC system.
