\section{MLT}  In the ``Mixing Length Theory'' of convection it is assumed that an element of fluid rises in pressure equilibrium and retains its identity while it moves through a distance $\Delta r$, after which it mixes with its surroundings, releasing its excess heat energy. The distance $\lambda \def $\Delta r$$ is called mixing length.  The heat transferred by upward moving elements can then be quantified as:  \begin{equation}  F_{c} = \frac{1}{2} \rho v \c_{cp} \lambda \Delta \nabla T   \end{equation}
