Exercise Physiology
Convection is the process of heat transfer through the movement of fluids, such as air or water, where warmer areas of a fluid rise and cooler areas sink. This mechanism plays a crucial role in regulating body temperature during exercise and in cold environments, influencing both heat dissipation and retention. Understanding convection helps explain how environmental factors can impact thermoregulation and overall performance in various temperatures.
