Convection heat transfer strongly depends on the fluid properties
dynamic viscosity, thermal conductivity, density, and specific heat, as
well as the fluid velocity. It also depends on the geometry and the
roughness of the solid surface, in addition to the type of fluid flow (such
as being streamlined or turbulent).

An implication of the no-slip condition is that heat transfer from the solid
surface to the fluid layer adjacent to the surface is by pure conduction,
since the fluid layer is motionless, and can be expressed as
The convection heat transfer coefficient, in general, varies along the flow
(or x-) direction. The average or mean convection heat transfer coefficient
for a surface in such cases is determined by properly averaging the local
convection heat transfer coefficients over the entire surface area As or
length L as

Nusselt Number
In convection studies, it is common practice to nondimensionalize the governing
equations and combine the variables, which group together into dimensionless
numbers in order to reduce the number of total variables.

Wall Shear Stress Shear stress: Friction force per unit area.
The shear stress for most fluids is
proportional to the velocity gradient, and
the shear stress at the wall surface is

The fluids that obey the linear relationship
above are called Newtonian Fluids.
Most common fluids such as water, air,
gasoline, and oils are Newtonian fluids.
Blood and liquid plastics are examples of
non-Newtonian fluids. In this text we
consider Newtonian fluids only.

THERMAL BOUNDARY LAYER
A thermal boundary layer develops when a fluid at a specified temperature
flows over a surface that is at a different temperature.
Thermal boundary layer: The flow region over the surface in which the
temperature variation in the direction normal to the surface is significant.
The thickness of the thermal boundary layer t at any location along the
surface is defined as the distance from the surface at which the temperature
difference T − Ts equals 0.99(T− Ts).
The thickness of the thermal
boundary layer increases in the
flow direction, since the effects
of heat transfer are felt at
greater distances from the
surface further down stream.
The shape of the temperature
profile in the thermal boundary
layer dictates the convection
heat transfer between a solid
surface and the fluid flowing
over it.

Tubes and Pipes
• Pipe ─ circular cross section.
• Duct ─ noncircular cross section.
• Tubes ─ small-diameter pipes.
• The fluid velocity changes from zero at the
surface (no-slip) to a maximum at the pipe
center.

average velocity, which remains

PARALLEL FLOW OVER FLAT PLATES
The transition from laminar to turbulent flow depends on the surface geometry,
surface roughness, upstream velocity, surface temperature, and the type of fluid,
among other things, and is best characterized by the Reynolds number.
The Reynolds number at a distance x from the leading edge of a flat plate is
expressed as
