Convective Heat Transfer

Fundamental Considerations In

Convective Heat Transfer

• Two main classifications of convective heat

transfer

• These have to do with the driving force causing

fluid to flow

Natural or free convection

Fluid motion results from heat transfer

Fluid heated/ cooled -> density change/ buoyancy effect ->

natural circulation in which affected fluid moves of its own

accord past the solid surface

- fluid it replaces is similarly affected by the energy transfer -

process is repeated

Forced convection

Fluid circulation is produced by external agency (fan or pump)

Analytical Methods

(a) Dimensional Analysis

(b) Analogy between Energy and Momentum Exchange

Significant Parameters In

Convective Heat Transfer

A. Both have same dimensions L2/t; thus their ratio must be

dimensionless

B. This ratio, that of molecular diffusivity of momentum to the

molecular diffusivity of heat, is designed the Prandtl number

Prandtl number

•observed to be a combination of fluid properties;

•thus Pr itself may be thought of as a property.

•Primarily a function of temperature

s

A ratio of conductive thermal resistance to the convective thermal

resistance of the fluid

Nusselt numberNu hL

Where the thermal conductivity of the fluid as opposed to that of the

solid, which was the case in the evaluation of the Biot modulus.

Example 1

Water at 50o

F enters a heat-exchanger tube having an inside diameter of 1 in and a length of 10

ft. The water flows at 20 gal/min. For a constant wall temperature of 210o

F estimate the

Film temperature = (water mean bulk temperature + pipe wall temperature)/2

Mean bulk temperature of water = (inlet + outlet)/2

=(90+210)/2 = 150 = (50+130)/2

Second iteration is required since if |TL – 130| >
