Lewis Number
Lewis number is used in combined heat and mass transfer calculations. It is equivalent to (Sc/Pr). It is normally defined in one of the following forms :
 |
Calculate Lewis Number (Formula 1)
Calculate Lewis Number (Formula 2)
| Where: | ||
| alpha | = | Thermal diffusivity |
| Cp | = | Heat capacity |
| Dv | = | Diffusivity |
| k | = | Thermal Conductivity |
| rho | = | Density |
