What is Reynolds analogy?

Reynolds analogy describes a relationship between heat transfer and friction coefficients when a fluid is flowing over the surface of a flat plate or inside the tube. Reynolds analogy can be used for both laminar as well as for turbulent flow it is misconceptualized that it can only be used for turbulent flow.
