This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Heat Flux - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter) - Heat Flux is the heat transfer rate per unit area normal to the direction of heat flow. It is denoted by the letter "Q".
Heat Transfer Coefficient - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter per Kelvin) - The Heat Transfer Coefficient is the heat transferred per unit area per kelvin. Thus, area is included in the equation as it represents the area over which the transfer of heat takes place.
Surface Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Surface Temperature is the temperature at or near a surface. Specifically, it may refer to as Surface air temperature, the temperature of the air near the surface of the earth.
Recovery Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Recovery Temperature is the temperature in the boundary layer immediately adjacent to the surface of a perfect heat insulator.
