    The heat transfer coefficient of bare wire in still air is calculated using the formula: h = q / (A x ΔT), where h is the heat transfer coefficient, q is the heat flux (in watts), A is the surface area of the wire (in square meters), and ΔT is the temperature difference between the wire surface and the surrounding air (in kelvin).

  5. Heat Transfer Coefficient to Air Flow Rate - Physics Forums

    www.physicsforums.com/threads/heat-transfer-coefficient-to-air-flow-rate.704814

    The heat transfer coefficient to air flow rate is an important parameter in designing and optimizing heat transfer systems, such as heat exchangers, HVAC systems, and industrial processes. It is also important in determining the cooling capacity and energy efficiency of these systems, and can help prevent overheating and equipment failure.

    The evaporation rate and heat transfer coefficients for water and air are discussed, with suggestions to use the Churchill and Chu correlation for the outside tank walls and an enclosure natural circulation heat transfer coefficient for the interior of the tank. The use of reference lengths and the Grashof number are also mentioned. May 13, 2011.

  7. Effects of Altitude on Convection Coefficient - Physics Forums

    www.physicsforums.com/threads/effects-of-altitude-on-convection-coefficient.631814

    The convection coefficient is a measure of the rate at which heat is transferred between a solid surface and a fluid, such as air or water, through the process of convection. 2. How does altitude affect the convection coefficient? As altitude increases, the density of the air decreases, which in turn affects the convection coefficient.

    Sep 11, 2011. Heat Heat transfer Thermodynamics. In summary, the problem involves a 1.5-m^2 black surface at 120 degrees C losing heat to surrounding air at 30 degrees C by convection and radiation to surrounding surfaces at 10 degrees C. The total rate of heat loss from the surface needs to be calculated, taking into account the convection ...
