Describes Convective Heat Transfer Needed for all external and internal flow

situations

Simplifies internal and external flow heat transfer calculations

Automates coefficient calculation leading to more reliable heat transfer calculations

Calculates quickly, allowing for iteration, which in turn gives more accurate convective coefficients and thereby more accurate temperature and flux values

Checks to verify that parameters are within the accurate range

Enter The flow characteristics.

Enter Known or Estimated Temperatures.

Enter Fluid Properties

Enter dynamic viscosity of the fluid at the surface temperature

The best fit convective coefficient is located in cell C59

The Legend contains options, units and error messages.

It also tells you which fields are needed for a problem, given the type of flow and geometry.
