Information

Dittus-Boelter's correlation for the computation of the heat transfer coefficient in one-phase flows.

Revision history:

• 20 Dec 2003 by Francesco Casella:
  Input variables changed. This function now computes the heat transfer coefficient as a function of all the required fluid properties and flow parameters.
• 1 Oct 2003 by Francesco Casella:
  First release.
