  • What is convective heat transfer?

    The continuous process, in which heat is transferred from the radiator to the air getting through contract.
  • What is the formula for convective heat transport?

    Q_cv = h_cv(theta_s-theta_a)
    Where:
    q_cv = heat flor rate by convection [W/m2]
    h_cv = heat transfer coefficient [W/m2K]
    theta_s = surface temperature [C]
    theta_a = air temperature [C]
  • What is the indoor convective heat transfer coefficient for horizontal surfaces?

    5 W/m2K for the floor and 0 W/m2K for the ceiling
  • What is the formula for heat transport by ventilation?

    Phi_v = rho*c_v*V(theta_i - theta_e)
  • 5.2.2 Heat transport by radiation

  • Which two modes of heat transfer has the radiator?

    1. The air is warmed by convective heat transfer and this air on its turn warms up the partitions;
    2. As a result of radiation, the partitions get heated directly.
  • What is the formula for heat flux by radiative transfer?

    Q_r = h_r(theta_s-theta_mrt)
    Where:
    q_r = heat flux by radiation [W]
    h_r = heat transfer coefficient for radiation [W/m2K]
    theta_s = surface temperature of the radiator
    theta_mrt = weighted average radiation temperature
  • EM radiation is a type of energy, what is its formula to determine the size?

    M=epsilon*sigma*T^4
    Where
    M = emittance [W/m2]
    epsilon = emission factor     
    sigma =  Stefan-Bolzmann constant [5.67*10^-8 W/m2K]
    T = surface temperature [K]
  • 5.2.3 Heat transport by conduction

  • What is the definition of heat transport by conduction?

    The molecules repel each other and thus exchange internal energy
  • What is the formula for heat flux by conduction?

    Qcd = labda(theta_2-theta_1)/d
