Introduction Recall: Convention is the heat transfer mode between a fluid and a solid or a 2 fluids of different phases In order to simplify the process we used Newton’s correlation Where h is the convective heat transfer coefficient also called the film coefficient. h is a function of:Fluid flow Fluid properties Geometry of the solid
3
There are four means to evaluate the heat transfer coefficient 1)Dimensional analysis 2)Exact analysis of boundary layer 3)Approximate integral analysis of the boundary layer 4) Analogy between energy and momentum transfer Significant Parameters: Nusselt Number Nu x y
4
The heat transfer rate between the surface and the fluid is At the surface itself Where k is the thermal conductivity of the fluid. Therefore:
5
Momentum Diffusivity Thermal Diffusivity The ratio of the momentum diffusivity over the thermal diffusivity is a combination of fluid properties and is also thougth of as a property (Named Prandtl Number Pr). Dependent on fluid and temperature Prandtl Number Pr

In this case the temperature difference in the convective heat transfer equation is defined as the log-mean temperature difference ΔT lm Where T i is the temperature of the fluid entering the bank T o is the temperature of the fluid leaving the bank And the outlet temperature can be estimated using Where N is the total number of tube and N T the transverse number of tube. Finally the heat transfer rate per unit length is
