Formula 5.132

Stanton number

Input(s)

$\mathrm{h}$: Convective heat transfer coefficient of the fluid $\left(\mathrm{W} /\left(\mathrm{m}^{2} \mathrm{~K}\right)\right)$

$\rho$: Density of the fluid $\left(\mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}\right)$

$\mathrm{u}$: Speed of the fluid $(\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s})$

cp: Specific heat of the fluid $(\mathrm{J} / \mathrm{kg} \mathrm{K})$

Output(s)

St: Stanton number (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

$$ S t=\frac{h}{\rho * u * c p} $$
