What is convective mass transfer?

Convective mass transfer is the process of transporting mass (such as a gas or dissolved substance) from one location to another through the combined effects of fluid motion and diffusion. It occurs when a fluid, like air or water, moves over a surface, carrying particles away or bringing them to the surface. The rate of convective mass transfer depends on factors such as fluid velocity, temperature, concentration gradients, and the properties of the fluid. It's important in processes like drying, evaporation, and chemical reactions in fluid systems.
