Convection is the mode of energy transfer between a solid surface and the adjacent fluid that is in motion, and it involves the combined effects of conduction and fluid motion.

The faster the fluid motion, the greater the convection heat transfer. In the absence of any bulk fluid motion, heat transfer between a solid surface and the adjacent fluid is by pure conduction.

The presence of bulk motion of the fluid enhances the heat transfer between the solid surface and the fluid, but it also complicates the determination of heat transfer rates.

Convection: mechanism of heat transfer through a fluid in the presence of bulk fluid motion

Conduction and Convection: • In solid, heat is transferred only by conduction, since

molecules of the solid remain at relatively fixed position • In a gas or liquid, heat can be transferred by conduction

and/or convection, depending on the presence of any bulk fluid motion:

Heat transfer processes that involve change of phase of a fluid are also considered to be convection because of the fluid motion induced during the process, such as the rise of the vapour bubbles during boiling or the fall of the liquid droplets during condensation.Despite the complexity of convection, the rate of convection heat transfer is observed to be proportional to the temperature difference, and is conveniently expressed by Newton’s law of cooling as

The convection heat transfer coefficient, h, is not a property of the fluid. It is an experimentally determined parameter whose value depends on all the variables influencing convection such as the surface geometry, the nature of fluid motion, the properties of the fluid, and the bulk fluid velocity. Typical values of h can be found in textbooks (Cengel and Ghajar 2015)

Judging from its units (W/m2K), the convection heat transfer coefficient, h, can be defined as the rate of heat transfer between a solid surface and a fluid per unit surface area per unit temperature difference.

Consider the following. A 2 m long and 0.3 cm diameter electrical wire extends across a room at 15°C, as shown below. Heat is generated in the wire as a result of resistance heating, and the surface temperature of the wire is measured to be 152°C in steady operation. Also, the voltage drop and electric current through the wire are measured to be 60 V and by radiation can be neglected, determine the convection heat transfer coefficient for heat transfer between the outer surface of the wire and the air in the room.

That is, a fluid in direct contact with a solid “sticks” to the surface due to viscous effects, and there is no slip. This is known as the no-slip condition The flow region adjacent to the wall in which the viscous effects are significant is called the boundary layerA consequence of the no-slip condition is that all velocity profiles must have zero values with respect to the surface at the points of contact between a fluid and a solid surface

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

Note that convection heat transfer from a solid surface to a fluid is merely the conduction heat transfer from the solid surface to the fluid layer adjacent to the surface

The above equation is valid for determination of the convection heat transfer coefficient when the temperature distribution within the fluid is known

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. It is also common practice to nondimensionalize the heat transfer coefficient h with the Nusselt number, defined as

Consider a fluid layer of thickness L and temperature difference = T2 - T1. Heat transfer through the fluid layer is by convection when the fluid involves some motion and by conduction when the fluid layer is motionless. Heat flux (the rate of heat transfer per unit surface area) in either case is given as:

The physical significance of the Nusselt number

Therefore, the Nusselt number represents the enhancement of heat transfer through a fluid layer as a result of convection relative to conduction across the same fluid layer. The larger the Nusselt number, the more effective the convection. A Nusselt number of Nu=1 for a fluid layer means that heat transfer across the layer is purely by conduction.

Similarly we can write that for heat transfer from fluid to wall surface as:

hx = local heat transfer coefficient at certain position x in flow direction and for given temperature distribution in the fluid flow.

Note the disappearance -ve sign around k

It is important to note that local heat transfer coefficient may vary along the length of flow, possibly as a result changes in velocity or other parameters in the flow direction. Our interest is in the overall heat transfer coefficient, which is an average over distance say x=0 to x = L

A thermocouple is used to measure the temperature of a gas flowing through a hot duct. The heat transfer coefficient, h, is proportional to u0.8, where u is the gas velocity and heat transfer rate by radiation from the walls to the thermocouple is proportional to temperature difference. when the gas is flowing at 5m/s, the thermocouple reads 323K and when it flows at 10 m/s, it reads 313K. Calculate the appropriate wall temperature at a gas temperature of 298K. What temperature will the thermometer indicate when the gas velocity is 20 m/s

We can infer that convection heat transfer is closely tied with fluid mechanics, which is the science that deals with the behaviour of fluids at rest or in motion, and the interaction of fluids with solids or other fluids at the boundaries.

There is a wide variety of fluid flow problems encountered in practice, and it is usually convenient to classify them on the basis of some common characteristics to make it feasible to study them in groups.

There are many ways to classify fluid flow problems, and here we present some general categories

» Viscous versus Inviscid region of flow» internal versus external flow» Compressible versus incompressible flow» Laminar versus turbulent flow» Natural (free) versus forced flow» Steady versus unsteady flow» 1-, 2- and 3 dimensional flow

Velocity boundary layers:The quantity is termed the boundary layer thickness, and it is typically defined as the value of y for which

The boundary layer velocity profile refers to the manner in which u varies with y through the boundary layer.

Accordingly, the fluid flow is characterized by two distinct regions, a thin fluid layer (the boundary layer) in which velocity gradients and shear stresses are large and a region outside the boundary layer in which velocity gradients and shear stresses are negligible.

With increasing distance from the leading edge, the effects of viscosity penetrate farther into the free stream and the boundary layer grows ( increases with x).

The relationship of velocity boundary layer to shear stress allows the calculation of friction coefficient

Thermal boundary layers:If the fluid flowing on a surface has a different temperature than the surface, the thermal boundary layer is similar to that of the velocity boundary layer

The thickness of thermal boundary layer, at any location along the length of flow is defined as a distance, y, from the surface at which:

where T is local temperature in the thermal boundary layer, a function of x and y directions

For flow over any surface, there will always exist a velocity boundary layer and hence surface friction. Likewise, a thermal boundary layer, and hence convection heat transfer, will always exist if the surface and free stream temperatures differ. Similarly, a concentration boundary layer and convection mass transfer will exist if the fluid’s species concentration at the surface differs from its species concentration in the free stream. The velocity boundary layer is of extent and is characterized by the presence of velocity gradients and shear stresses. The thermal boundary layer is of extent and is characterized by temperature gradients and heat transfer. Finally, the concentration boundary layer is of extent and is characterized by concentration gradients and species transfer. Situations can arise in which all three boundary layers are present. In such cases, the boundary layers rarely grow at the same rate, and their values at any given location are not the same.
