A heat exchange device that uses the heat in steam, hot water, or an electric resistance element to warm the air in a room; often called inaccurately, a radiator. Essentially, it's a space heater that transfers heat to the surrounding air by convection. And, just as an interesting side fact, in Roman mythology, the god Convector oversaw the bringing in of the crops from the fields.

What is a good example of a heat convector?
copper
What are possible causes of laminar flow in a convector pipe of a radiant panel system?
The cause can be easily found by checking Hazen -williams formula's
What is the efficiency of 1.5 KVA inverter?
It can supply up to 1.5 kW into a load with a perfect power factor like a convector heater, or less if the power factor is less than 1. For example a motor might have a power factor of 0.75, then only 1125 watts could be used, in other words about 1.5 horse-power.
When was The Toynbee Convector created?
The Toynbee Convector was created in 1984-01.

Where does air flow into a convector heater?

Where can one find a Convector central heating radiator?
Convector central heating radiators can be purchased from many different stores, online and offline. Some examples of these stores include Plumbworld and BuyARadiator.
Where can one buy convector heaters?
Convector heaters can be purchased from many shops, such as Wal-Mart. Local independent electrical shops will stock these appliances also, as well as being able to be purchased online.
On a convector heater where does the air flow into it?
If there is no fan to pull the air in, fresh air must come into a convector heater from below. It is drawn in because the air heated by the heating element is warmer and therefore lighter than the colder air below it. So the warmer air rises to leave the convector heater from the top.
How much does a 2 kilowatt convector heater cost an hour?
To calculate the cost of running a 2 kilowatt convector heater per hour, you need to know the electricity rate charged by your utility company. Let's assume the rate is $0.12 per kilowatt-hour. In this case, running a 2 kilowatt convector heater for an hour would cost $0.24 ($0.12 x 2).
What was invented in Lacrosse County?
The convector radiator. I don't think lacrosse is very big there.
