substance due to interactions between the particles

15
Q

are objects in which one
or more layer is composed of different
component.

A

Composite materials

16
Q

is a composite material in which the
different layers are distributed throughout it
thickness or sandwiched together

A

Material in Series

17
Q

is a composite material in
which the different layers are distributed
throughout its length.

A

Material in Parallel

18
Q

represent the fictitious film due to convection and
can be solved as composite material (e.g., plane wall
in series)

A

The h and h , the convective heat transfer coefficient,

19
Q

s caused by the
existence of a temperature difference due to
imperfections in the touching surfaces.

A

Thermal contact resistance

20
Q

is the transfer of heat between an
object and a fluid (liquid or gas)
through the actual movement of the fluid. Heat is first transferred at the surface by conduction, but most of the
energy transfer happens because the fluid moves and carries the heat with it.

21
Q

can occur naturally due
to buoyancy effects caused by temperature
differences, or it can be forced when the fluid is moved using
devices like fans or pumps, or when the object moves through the fluid.

22
Q

states that, the rate of heat loss of a body is directly proportional to the difference in the temperatures between the body and its surroundings provided the temperature difference

A

Newton’s law of cooling

23
is a number with no physical units. It is formed from ratios or products of physical properties and is used to simplify and compare complex physical systems, such as fluid flow and heat transfer. Common examples include the Reynolds, Prandtl, Grashof, Nusselt, and Rayleigh numbers.
Dimensionless quantity
24
represents the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces in a fluid flow and is used to determine whether the flow is laminar or turbulent.
Reynolds Number
25
is the ratio of kinematic viscosity (ν) to thermal diffusivity (α). It indicates the relative effectiveness of momentum diffusion compared to heat diffusion within the velocity and thermal boundary layers.
Prandtl Number (Pr)
26
is the ratio of a buoyancy force times an inertial force to the square of a viscous force and is used in analyzing the velocity distribution in free convection system
Grashof Number (Gr)
27
is the ratio of heat transfer by convection to heat transfer by conduction. It shows how effective convection is at transferring heat at a surface—higher Nu means better convection heat transfer.
Nusselt Number (Nu)
28
29
characterizes natural (free) convection flow and is the product of the Grashof and Prandtl numbers, combining the effects of buoyancy, viscosity, and thermal diffusion.
Rayleigh Number (Ra)
