kc_evenGapTurbulent

Mean heat transfer coefficient of even gap | turbulent flow regime | developed fluid flow | heat transfer at BOTH sides | identical and constant wall temperatures

Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

Calculation of the mean convective heat transfer coefficient kc for a developed turbulent fluid flow through an even gap at heat transfer from both sides. Note that additionally a failure status is observed in this function to check if the intended boundary conditions are fulfilled. See more information.
