Heat Transfer Factor

Heat transfer factor is used in heat transfer in general and free and forced convection calculations in particular. It is normally defined in one of the following forms :

 

Heat Transfer Factor

or

Heat Transfer Factor

 

Where:

Cp

=

Heat capacity

G

=

Mass velocity

h

=

Heat transfer coefficient

k

=

Thermal Conductivity

mu

=

Viscosity

rho

=

Density

V

=

Velocity
