Wind heat transfer coefficients often need to be calculated for building exterior surfaces and solar collectors.
Under still air conditions, the convective heat transfer coefficient is about 5 W/(m²·degC). For forced
convention due to wind, the relationship employed in the example below is recommended (Duffie and
Beckman, 1983).
