Question

Convection heat transfer data are often reported as a heat
transfer coefficient h , defined by
Q= hA ∆T
where Q= heat flow, J/s
A = surface area, m 2
∆ T = temperature difference, K
The dimensionless form of h , called the Stanton number, is
a combination of h , fluid density ρ , specific heat c p , and
fl ow velocity V . Derive the Stanton number if it is proportional
to h . What are the units of h ?
