Cooling Mode - Heat Flux
Heat fluxes for various cooling or heat transfer modes.
Cooling modes and maximum heat transfer flux:
| Cooling Mode | Heat Flux (kW/m2) |
|---|---|
| Free Convection Air | 0.5 |
| Forced Convection Air | 5 |
| Free Convection Immersion | 10 |
| Forced Convection Immersion | 500 |
| Forced Convection Boiling | 1000 |
| Impingement Air | 10 |
| Jet Immersion, single phase | 400 |
| Jet Immersion, boiling | 900 |
- 1 Btu/ft2h = 3.1525 W/m2
Based on 85 oC surface temperature and 20 oC ambient temperature.
