Free and Forced Convection (Correlations) | Thermal Engineering

In this article we will discuss about the empirical correlations for free and forced convection. Bulk Temperature and Mean Film Temperature: The physical properties (µ, k, ρ, cp) of a fluid are temperature dependent. Undoubtedly the accuracy of the results obtained by using theoretical relations and the dimensionless empirical correlations would depend upon the temperature chosen for the evaluation of [...]
