Fundamentals of
Convection Heat Transfer
So far we have used Newton’s law of cooling, with some knowledge of convec-
tion heat transfer coefcient, to calculate convection heat transfer from a surface.
However, convection heat transfer coefcient varies from one ow to another and
depends on uid properties, ow geometry, surface dimensions and roughness, and
ow type. The relationship between convection heat transfer coefcient and ow
variables are illustrated in this chapter, and specic correlations for calculating
convection heat transfer coefcients in common ows will be given in Chapters 10
through 12.
