The heat transfer coefficient in convection depends on which of the following?
  1. Surface area
  2. Fluid velocity
  3. Temperature difference
  4. All of the above

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

The heat transfer coefficient in convection depends on which of the following?
  • Step 1: Understand that the heat transfer coefficient is a measure of how well heat is transferred between a surface and a fluid.
  • Step 2: Recognize that the surface area affects how much heat can be transferred; larger areas allow for more heat exchange.
  • Step 3: Know that fluid velocity impacts heat transfer; faster-moving fluids can carry heat away more quickly.
  • Step 4: Realize that the temperature difference between the surface and the fluid drives heat transfer; a larger difference means more heat will flow.
