Convection heat transfer involves
• fluid motion
• heat conduction
The fluid motion enhances the heat
transfer, since it brings hotter and cooler
chunks of fluid into contact, initiating
higher rates of conduction at a greater
number of sites in fluid. Therefore, the rate
of heat transfer through a fluid is much
higher by convection than it is by
conduction. In fact, the higher the fluid
velocity, the higher the rate of heat
transfer.
Convection heat transfer strongly depends on
• fluid properties dynamic viscosity , thermal conductivity k, density
and specific heat
• fluid velocity V
• Geometry and the roughness of the solid surface
• Type of fluid flow (such as being laminar or turbulent).

A similar phenomenon occurs for the temperature. When two bodies at
different temperatures are brought into contact, heat transfer occurs until
both bodies assume the same temperature at the point of contact.
Therefore, a fluid and a solid surface will have the same temperature at the
point of contact. This is known as NO-TEMPERATURE-JUMP CONDITION.
An implication of the no-slip and the no-temperature jump conditions
is that heat transfer from the solid surface to the fluid layer adjacent
to the surface is by pure conduction, since the fluid layer is motionless,

Nusselt number - enhancement of heat transfer through a fluid layer as a result of
convection relative to conduction across the same fluid layer.
Larger the Nusselt number, the more effective the convection.
Nu = 1 for a fluid layer - heat transfer across the layer by pure conduction
Internal and external flows
EXTERNAL FLOW - The flow of an unbounded fluid over a surface such
as a plate, a wire, or a pipe
INTERNAL FLOW - flow in a pipe or duct, if the fluid is completely
bounded by solid surfaces

Laminar versus Turbulent Flow
Some flows are smooth and orderly while others are rather chaotic. The highly
ordered fluid motion characterized by smooth streamlines is called laminar. The flow
of high-viscosity fluids such as oils at low velocities is typically laminar.
The highly disordered fluid motion that typically occurs at high velocities
characterized by velocities fluctuations is called turbulent. The flow of low-viscosity
fluids such as air at high velocities is typically turbulent. The flow regime greatly
influences the heat transfer rates and the required power for pumping

Entrance
Osborne Reynolds in 1880’s, discovered that the flow regime depends mainly on the
ratio of the inertia forces to viscous forces in the fluid.
The Reynolds number can be viewed as the ratio of the inertia forces to
viscous forces acting on a fluid volume element.

Thermal boundary layer on a flat plate (the fluid is hotter than the plate surface)
The thickness of the thermal boundary layer, at any location along the
surface is define as the distance from the surface at which the
temperature difference T – Ts equals 0.99(T– Ts).
For the special case of Ts = 0, we have T = 0.99 at the outer edge of the
thermal boundary layer, which is analogous to u = 0.99 for the velocity
boundary layer.
 Shape of the temperature profile in the thermal boundary layer dictates
the convection heat transfer between a solid surface and the fluid flowing
over it.
 In flow over a heated (or cooled) surface, both velocity and thermal
boundary layers will develop simultaneously.
 Noting that the fluid velocity will have a strong influence on the
temperature profile, the development of the velocity boundary layer
relative to the thermal boundary layer will have a strong effect on the
convection heat transfer.
PRANDTL NUMBER
The relative thickness of the velocity and the thermal boundary layers is
described by the dimensionless parameter Prandtl number, defined as

Note that, heat transfer is always from the higher-temperature medium to the lowertemperature one. In this case, it is from the oil to the plate. The heat transfer rate is per
m width of the plate. The heat transfer for the entire plate can be obtained by
multiplying the value obtained by the actual width of the plate.

atm pressure and 10oC and the wind is blowing across the pipe at a
velocity of 8 m/s.
