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 :
|
or
|
Where: | ||
alpha | = | Thermal diffusivity |
Cp | = | Heat capacity |
Dv | = | Diffusivity |
k | = | Thermal Conductivity |
rho | = | Density |
