How to Calculate Local heat transfer coefficient?
Local heat transfer coefficient calculator uses Local Heat Transfer Coefficient = (Local Skin-Friction Coefficient*Density of Fluid*Specific Heat Capacity*Free Stream Velocity)/2 to calculate the Local Heat Transfer Coefficient, The local heat transfer coefficient formula calculates the heat transfer coefficient at a point that is at some distance from the leading edge of the flat plate using the Reynolds analogy. Local Heat Transfer Coefficient is denoted by hx symbol.
How to calculate Local heat transfer coefficient using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Local heat transfer coefficient, enter Local Skin-Friction Coefficient (Cf), Density of Fluid (ρfluid), Specific Heat Capacity (c) & Free Stream Velocity (u∞) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Local heat transfer coefficient calculation can be explained with given input values -> 17938.9 = (0.00125*1.225*4184*70)/2.
