Question
Please Answer Thank you
Obtain by dimensional analysis a functional relationship for the
wall heat transfer coefficient h (W/m2-K) for a fluid flowing
through a straight pipe of circular cross section. Assume that the
effects of natural convection may be neglected in comparison with
those of forced convection. Taking the heat transfer coefficient, h,
as a function of the fluid velocity, density, viscosity specific heat
and thermal conductivity, v, p, µ, Cp and k, respectively, and of the
inside diameter of the pipe, d. For recurring set, the variables d, µ,
H,
k, and p. It found by experiment that, when the flow is turbulent,
increasing the flowrate by a factor of 2 always results in a 60
percent increase in the coefficient. How would a 50 percent
increase in density of the fluid be expected to affect coefficient, all
other variables remaining constant?
