Information

The following correlation is applicable for a flat plate with a turbulent boundary layer.
The formula is picked from the ASHRAE guide (2005) chapter 3 table 9 equation T9.11

Where :

• Nu is the Nusselt number
• Re is the Reynolds number
• Pr is the Prandtl number

The correlation is given for a Reynolds number Re > 5x10⁵.
