Raj Guest Posts: n/a	Hi all, I want to find out the average heat transfer coefficent associated with a wall. The problem is Water flows inside a pipe with the surface temperature of pipe is 60 deg C and the water enters at 27 deg C. Flow is turbulent. Whether surface heat flux and mean temperature are to be taken for finding h? If yes, how to find the mean temperature of fluid? Else can we take the surface heat transfer coefficient given directly by the software? which is correct? Expecting a reply Raj.
