Stanton number for convection Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Stanton Number = Wall Heat Transfer Rate/Heat Transfer by Convection
St = hw/h_cn
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Stanton Number - The Stanton Number is a dimensionless number that measures the ratio of heat transferred into a fluid to the thermal capacity of the fluid.
Wall Heat Transfer Rate - Wall heat transfer rate is the amount of heat that is transferred per unit of time in some material.
Heat Transfer by Convection - Heat transfer by convection is heat transfer by mass motion of a fluid such as air or water.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wall Heat Transfer Rate: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required

Stanton Number = Wall Heat Transfer Rate/Heat Transfer by Convection
St = hw/h_cn

What is convection?

Convection is the process of heat transfer by the bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids. The initial heat transfer between the object and the fluid takes place through conduction, but the bulk heat transfer happens due to the motion of the fluid.

How to Calculate Stanton number for convection?

Stanton number for convection calculator uses Stanton Number = Wall Heat Transfer Rate/Heat Transfer by Convection to calculate the Stanton Number, The Stanton number for convection formula is defined as the ratio of heat transferred into a fluid to the thermal capacity of fluid. Stanton Number is denoted by St symbol.

How to calculate Stanton number for convection using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Stanton number for convection, enter Wall Heat Transfer Rate (hw) & Heat Transfer by Convection (h_cn) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Stanton number for convection calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.4 = 0.5/1.25.
