modelPartialPipeFlowHeatTransfer

Base class for pipe heat transfer correlation in terms of Nusselt number heat transfer in a circular pipe for laminar and turbulent one-phase flow

Extends from PartialFlowHeatTransfer (Base class for any pipe heat transfer correlation).

Information

Base class for heat transfer models that are expressed in terms of the Nusselt number and which can be used in distributed pipe models.
