The process of heat transfer from one particle of the fluid to another by the actual movement of the fluid particles caused by some mechanical means is known as Forced convection.

Forced convection is a special type of heat transfer in which fluids are forced to move, in order to increase the heat transfer. This forcing can be done with a ceiling fan, a pump, a suction device, or other.

Forced convection is used in heating and air conditioning systems, electronics cooling, and in numerous other technologies. Forced convection is used in designing heat exchangers, in which one fluid stream is used to heat or cool another fluid stream.
