Colburn-Chilton j factor
Colburn-Chilton j factor is used in heat transfer in general and free and forced convection calculations in particular. It is equivalent to (St.Pr^2/3). It is normally defined in one of the following forms :
or
Where: | ||
Cp | = | Heat capacity |
G | = | Mass velocity |
h | = | Heat transfer coefficient |
k | = | Thermal Conductivity |
mu | = | Viscosity |
rho | = | Density |
V | = | Velocity |
