TITLE: Heat Transfer: Convection

Introduction

This report discusses an experiment to study the relationship of ………………….

(Provide relevant background and theory, then state the objectives of the experiment).

………………………..The objectives of the experiment are to study how difference surfaces influence the
heat transfer rate and the influence of air velocity in force convection.

Experiment Methodology

In this experiment, a force convection bench with interchangeable heat sink was used to study……….

(List down the apparatus used and describe the experimental setup. You can includes diagrams and
sketches of the apparatus and the setup of the apparatus. Then explain the experiment procedures)

Figure Y: The experiment setup.

……….. The data were taken after five minutes to allow the system to reach a stable condition. The
experiment was repeated for difference air velocity (0.5m/s and 1.5 m/s) and different heat sink
profile as shown in figure XY.

Raw Data

(Place the experimental data you have collected during the lab session here, organize in a neat
table.)

Results and Discussion

In this experiment, heat transfer through convection was studied at different conditions. ………

This section analyses the results of the experiment. From the experimental data collected, the rate
of heat transfer were calculated and presented in the Table XX. The sample calculation for the first
set of data is presented in Appendix A.

data you have obtained from the experiment and relate between what you have learn with what you
are getting from the experiment.)

(Provide experiment analysis with appropriate table, sample analysis (with in this section or in
appendix), graphs, diagram, and etc. Then make appropriate discussion relate to the experiment and
values from your analysis.)

Conclusion

The experiment succeeded in showing……………………….. … The difference between experimental

values and theoretical values can be accounted for by the reasons stated in the discussion.
