| 11. | Furthermore, the convective heat flux can be determined via the definition of the heat transfer coefficient h,
|
| 12. | The convective heat transfer coefficient is dependent upon the physical properties of the fluid and the physical situation.
|
| 13. | Additionally, the temperature of the surroundings and the convective heat transfer coefficient must remain constant and uniform.
|
| 14. | Besides that, the local heat transfer coefficient inside the tube is depending on the change in temperature.
|
| 15. | Relative roughness pitch is an important parameter considered for designing artificial roughness to enhance the heat transfer coefficient.
|
| 16. | Due to the very high heat transfer coefficients for boiling and condensation, heat pipes are highly effective thermal conductors.
|
| 17. | Architects and engineers call the resulting values either the overall heat transfer coefficient described in lower section of this document.
|
| 18. | The equation yields the surface averaged Nusselt number, which is used to determine the average convective heat transfer coefficient.
|
| 19. | This equation shows that the critical radius depends only on the heat transfer coefficient and the thermal conductivity of the insulation.
|
| 20. | By calculating the heat transfer coefficient from this Biot number, one can find a liquid medium suitable for the application.
