Heat Transfer through Finned Tube
Heat Transfer through Finned Tube
(OP)
Hello All
I want to calculate how much heat will be lost from a finned tube to the ambient air. Could anyone tell me. I tried looking up various sites and all of them do show different methods... so I am kind of confused now. Thanks
