How to solve a convection problem ?
• Solve governing equations along with boundary conditions
• Governing equations include
1. conservation of mass
2. conservation of momentum
3. conservation of energy
• In Conduction problems, only (3) is needed to be solved.
Hence, only few parameters are involved
• In Convection, all the governing equations need to be
solved.
⇒ large number of parameters can be involved
Forced convection: Non-dimensional groupings
• Nusselt No. Nu = hx / k = (convection heat transfer strength)/
(conduction heat transfer strength)
• Prandtl No. Pr = ν/α = (momentum diffusivity)/ (thermal diffusivity)
• Reynolds No. Re = U x / ν = (inertia force)/(viscous force)
Viscous force provides the dampening effect for disturbances in the
fluid. If dampening is strong enough ⇒ laminar flow
Otherwise, instability ⇒ turbulent flow ⇒ critical Reynolds number

FORCED CONVECTION:
external flow (over flat plate)
An internal flow is surrounded by solid boundaries that can restrict the
development of its boundary layer, for example, a pipe flow. An external flow, on
the other hand, are flows over bodies immersed in an unbounded fluid so that the
flow boundary layer can grow freely in one direction. Examples include the flows
over airfoils, ship hulls, turbine blades, etc.
•Fluid particle adjacent to the
solid surface is at rest

Ts motion of adjoining layers

Hydrodynamic boundary layer
One of the most important concepts in understanding the external flows is the
boundary layer development. For simplicity, we are going to analyze a boundary
layer flow over a flat plate with no curvature and no external pressure variation.

Boundary layer definition
¾Boundary layer thickness (δ): defined as the distance away from the surface
where the local velocity reaches to 99% of the free-stream velocity, that is
u(y=δ)=0.99U∞. Somewhat an easy to understand but arbitrary definition.
¾Boundary layer is usually very thin: δ/x usually << 1.
Hydrodynamic and Thermal
boundary layers
As we have seen earlier,the hydrodynamic boundary layer is a region of a
fluid flow, near a solid surface, where the flow patterns are directly
influenced by viscous drag from the surface wall.

Example
Determine the boundary layer thickness, the wall shear stress of a laminar water flow
over a flat plate. The freestream velocity is 1 m/s, the kinematic viscosity of the water
is 10-6 m2/s. The density of the water is 1,000 kg/m3. The transition Reynolds number
Re=Ux/ν=5×105. Determine the distance downstream of the leading edge when the
boundary transitions to turbulent. Determine the total frictional drag produced by the
laminar and turbulent portions of the plate which is 1 m long. If the free stream and
plate temperatures are 100 °C and 25 °C, respectively, determine the heat transfer rate
from the plate.

Consider Tm as the reference temperature of the fluid so that the
total heat transfer between the pipe and the fluid is governed by the
Newton’s cooling law as: qs”=h(Ts-Tm), where h is the local
convection coefficient, and Ts is the local surface temperature.
Note: usually Tm is not a constant and it varies along the pipe
depending on the condition of the heat transfer.
Energy Balance
Example: We would like to design a solar water heater that can heat up the
water temperature from 20° C to 50° C at a water flow rate of 0.15 kg/s. The
water is flowing through a 5 cm diameter pipe and is receiving a net solar
radiation flux of 200 W per unit length (meter). Determine the total pipe length
required to achieve the goal.

Question (4): How about the surface temperature distribution?

Note: These distributions are valid only in the fully developed region. In the
entrance region, the convection condition should be different. In general, the
entrance length x/D≈10 for a turbulent pipe flow and is usually negligible as
compared to the total pipe length.

Log-Mean Temperature Difference
Can we extend the previous analysis to include the situation that some external
heat transfer conditions are given, rather than that the surface temperature is
given. Example: Pipe flow buried underground with insulation. In that case,
the heat transfer is first from the fluid to the pipe wall through convection; then
followed by the conduction through the insulation layer; finally, heat is
transferred to the soil surface by conduction. See the following figure:

• Grashof number replaces the Reynolds number in the convection correlation
equation. In free convection, buoyancy driven flow sometimes dominates the
flow inertia, therefore, the Nusselt number is a function of the Grashof number
and the Prandtle number alone. Nu=f(Gr, Pr). Reynolds number will be
important if there is an external flow. (combined forced and free convection.
