| Heat Convection Database | ||
|
The Convection database contains heat convection data of 111 substances and 4 functions. This makes it possible to estimate heat convection within these gaseous and liquid materials.
The convection database can be edited by selecting Edit/Convection Database from the menu bar. Since the files are of XLS type you can also edit them directly from Excel. Temperature units available are K and °C. The density is not a key requirement, although it can be used in order to calculate the other properties. If the thermal expansion coefficient is not given, the program will assume that the material is an ideal gas and calculate the coefficient as b = 1/Tinf. The maximum and minimum temperatures are in the hidden column A and are always given in Kelvins. This window is used when selecting the surface or enclosure material and pressing the Convection button. |
