Heat Transfer Phenomena: Convection

This lecture covers the determination of heat transfer coefficients by convection through mathematical solutions, approximate boundary layer studies, analogy between heat and mass transfer, dimensional analysis, and adimensional group determination. It also explains the significance of Prandtl, Reynolds, Peclet, and Stanton numbers in characterizing convective heat transfer. The lecture further delves into empirical relations for forced and natural convection, as well as the calculation of heat flux and total heat transfer by convection. Practical examples and procedures for calculating thermal flux are also discussed.
