# Errata
|
||||
|
||||
## Grashof Number (formula booklet, lecture slides p. 24, lecture recording 2, 1:19:30)
|
||||
|
||||
The Grashof number formula should be written with $\nu$, not $\mu$,
|
||||
It is correctly written in lecture notes (p. 8), [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grashof_number),
|
||||
and on this page.
|
||||
|
||||
Somehow it is also incorrect in the formula booklet.
|
||||
|
||||
You can check which one is correct by checking which results in a dimensionless Grashof number.

# Convection
|
||||
|
||||
- conduction and radiation heat transfer can be estimated by calculations and properties
|
||||
- convection is dependent on fluid properties, flow type, and flow characteristics
|
||||
|
||||
The rate of convective heat transfer, $\dot Q$, is given by
|
||||
The rate of convective heat transfer, $\dot Q$, is given by Newton's law of cooling:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{equation}
|
||||
\dot Q = hA(T_f-T_w)
|
||||
@ -33,3 +45,91 @@ $$\dot Q = \frac{T_f-T_w}{\sum R_\text{thermal}}$$
|
||||
where $R_\text{thermal} = \frac{1}{hA}$.
|
||||
|
||||
In a way this analogous to Ohm's law, specifically with resistors in series ($I = \frac{\Delta V}{\sum R_\text{electrical}}$).
|
||||
|
||||
## Analysis of how Convection Works
|
||||
|
||||
At a hot wall, the velocity of the fluid touching it will be zero.
|
||||
Therefore the heat transfer into the fluid must happen by conduction.
|
||||
This means that the local heat flux per unit area, $\dot Q''$ (dot for rate, double dash for per
|
||||
unit area) is given by:
|
||||
|
||||
$$\dot Q'' = -k \frac{\delta T}{\delta y}|_{\text{wall}}$$
|
||||
|
||||
where $k$ is the conductivity of the wall
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
The heated fluid is carried away by convection, therefore at steady state we can say that:
|
||||
|
||||
$$\dot Q'' = -k \frac{\delta T}{\delta y}|_\text{wall} = -h(T_\infty - T_\text{wall})$$
|
||||
|
||||
Rearranging allows $h$ to be found.
|
||||
|
||||
# Nusselt Number - Relation Between Fluid Conductivity and Convection
|
||||
|
||||
Nusselt number is a dimensionless number:
|
||||
|
||||
$$\text{Nu} = \frac{hL}{k_f}$$
|
||||
|
||||
where $k_f$ is conductivity of the fluid, $L$ is the representative length (e.g. diameter, length,
|
||||
internal width, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
Since $h$ is unknown a lot of the time, sometimes Nusselt number must be found through approximating
|
||||
by other dimensionless numbers: Prandtl, Reynolds, and Grashof.
|
||||
|
||||
Nusselt number for a laminar forced flow is around 3.66.
|
||||
For a turbulent forced flow it is estimated to be:
|
||||
|
||||
$$\text{Nu}_x = 0.023\text{Re}_x^{0.8}\text{Pr}^{0.4}$$
|
||||
|
||||
For a laminar forced flow over a flat plate:
|
||||
|
||||
$$\text{Nu}_x = 0.332\text{Re}_x^{0.5}\text{Pr}^{0.33}$$
|
||||
|
||||
For natural convection of a vertical wall:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{align*}
|
||||
\text{Nu}_x = 0.59(\text{Gr}_x\text{Pr})^{0.25} &\text{ for }10^3 < \text{GrPr} < 10^9 \\
|
||||
\text{Nu}_x = 0.13(\text{Gr}_x\text{Pr})^{0.25} &\text{ for }10^9 < \text{GrPr} < 10^{12}
|
||||
\end{align*}

# Prandtl Number
|
||||
|
||||
This number relates thickness of velocity boundary layer to thickness of thermal boundary layer:
|
||||
|
||||
$$\text{Pr} = \frac{c_p\mu}{k_f} = \frac{\nu}{\alpha}$$
|
||||
|
||||
where $\nu$ is the kinematic viscosity and $\alpha$ is the thermal diffusivity (equations given in
|
||||
lecture notes p. 5).
|
||||
|
||||
# Grashof Number
|
||||
|
||||
Grashof number compares the buoyancy of the fluid (due to compressibility, $\beta = T^{-1}$,
|
||||
where $T$ is the film temperature, or average temperature between fluid and wall, in kelvin)
|
||||
and the viscous resistance to buoyant motion.
|
||||
|
||||
$$\text{Gr} = \frac{g\beta L^3\rho^2\Delta T}{\nu^2}$$
|
||||
|
||||
where $g$ is acceleration due to gravity, $L$ is the height or length of the tube, $\rho$ is density
|
||||
of the fluid, $\Delta T = T_\text{wall} - T_\infty$, and $\nu$ is the kinematic viscosity.
|
||||
|
||||
# Axisymmetric Shenanigans
|
||||
|
||||
Axisymmetric shapes are symmetric about an axis.
|
||||
|
||||
$$\dot Q' = -kA\frac{\mathrm dT}{\mathrm dr} = -k2\pi r\frac{\mathrm dT}{\mathrm dr}$$
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the single dash on $\dot Q'$ implies *per unit length*.
|
||||
For any length, $L$, $A = 2\pi rL$.
|
||||
|
||||
In this case, the temperature profile is no longer linear, even if $k$ is constant:
|
||||
|
||||
$$R_\text{th} = \frac{\ln r_o - \ln r_i}{2\pi kL}$$
