Thermal conductivity/ heat transfer coefficient
Thermal conductivity/ heat transfer coefficient
(OP)
Hi All,
Could anybody help on this one. I am currently working on a project where I need convective air thermal conductivity in pipe. It would be of great help if air convective heat transfer coefficient is know too.
I am interested in typical values. I know these values depend on several parameters, but I am interested in free convection only (ambient air condition).
Thanks
Lukky

RE: Thermal conductivity/ heat transfer coefficient
However, I will point you to use ASTM C-680. The formulae that you need to perform these calculations are in there. Otherwise, I recommend Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer by Incropera and Dewitt. (The ASTM standard references this textbook for the bulk of the formulae, so your choice either way).
