(AD)ChurchillChuHTCFunctorMaterial
This functor material computes a heat transfer coefficient due to natural convection heat between a long, horizontal, cylindrical, heated solid surface and a fluid using functors. The corresponding heat transfer is:
The heat transfer coefficient is computed using the non-dimensional Churchill-Chu correlation Churchill and Chu (1975):
The non-dimensional parameters are:
Nusselt
Prandtl, given by "Pr"
Rayleigh (Grashof times Prandtl), where Grashof is given by "Gr"
where
is the heat transfer coefficient, given by "htc_name",
is the outward normal unit vector from the solid surface,
is the solid temperature,
is the fluid temperature,
is the solid cylinder diameter, given by "diameter"
is the fluid thermal conductivity, given by "k_fluid"
is the fluid dynamic viscosity,
is the fluid isobaric specific heat,
is the gravitational acceleration, 9.807 m/s,
is the fluid volumetric expansion coefficient,
is the fluid density.
The correlation in generally valid for air with .
The AD version of this class is used to retrieve all of the input functors with AD types.
