Heat Transfer Coefficient Calculations

Description:

This Worksheet will allow you to calculate heat transfer coefficients (h) for convection situations that involve internal flow in a tube of given cross-section. The sheet will allow you to input your tube cross section specifications (perimeter, area, diameter), to define desired flow rates, to calculate Reynold's numbers and Nusselt numbers, and finally to find the local heat transfer coefficient (h). Each Section of the sheet is surrounded by a border with a heading, and includes an important step in the calculation process. You, the user, must fill in every box that is surrounded by a double border like below. You must also select entries from all drop-down menus.
