Nusselt number for liquids with higher Peclet number Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Nusselt Number = 1.25*(Peclet Number^0.413)
Nu = 1.25*(Pe^0.413)
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Nusselt Number - The Nusselt Number is the ratio of convective to conductive heat transfer at a boundary in a fluid. Convection includes both advection and diffusion.
Peclet Number - Peclet number is a measure of the relative importance of advection versus diffusion, where a large number indicates an advectively dominated distribution, and a small number indicates a diffuse flow.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Peclet Number: 0.84 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Nu = 1.25*(Pe^0.413) --> 1.25*(0.84^0.413)

Evaluating ... ...

Nu = 1.16315437394017

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.16315437394017 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.16315437394017 ≈ 1.163154 <-- Nusselt Number

What is external flow?

In fluid mechanics, external flow is such a flow that boundary layers develop freely, without constraints imposed by adjacent surfaces. Accordingly, there will always exist a region of the flow outside the boundary layer in which velocity, temperature, and/or concentration gradients are negligible. It can be defined as the flow of a fluid around a body that is completely submerged in it.

An example includes fluid motion over a flat plate (inclined or parallel to the free stream velocity) and flow over curved surfaces such as a sphere, cylinder, airfoil, or turbine blade, air flowing around an airplane and water flowing around the submarines.
