Heat Transfer
Heat Transfer is defined as the movement of heat across the border of the system due to a difference in temperature between the system and its surroundings.
Symbol: Q
Measurement: EnergyUnit: J
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Density
The Density of a material shows the denseness of that material in a specific given area. This is taken as mass per unit volume of a given object.
Symbol: ρ
Measurement: DensityUnit: kg/m³
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Specific Heat
The Specific Heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
Symbol: c
Measurement: Specific Heat CapacityUnit: J/(kg*K)
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Total Volume
Total Volume is the overall amount of space that a substance or object occupies or that is enclosed within a container.
Symbol: VT
Measurement: VolumeUnit: m³
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Initial Temperature
The Initial Temperature is defined as the measure of heat under initial state or conditions.
Symbol: To
Measurement: TemperatureUnit: K
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Fluid Temperature
Fluid Temperature is the temperature of the fluid surrounding the object.
Symbol: tf
Measurement: TemperatureUnit: K
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Biot Number
Biot Number is a dimensionless quantity having the ratio of internal conduction resistance to the surface convection resistance.
Symbol: Bi
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Fourier Number
Fourier Number is the ratio of diffusive or conductive transport rate to the quantity storage rate, where the quantity may be either heat or matter.
Symbol: Fo
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
