Question: Convection heat-transfer data are often reported as a heat-transfer coefficient h, defined by Q = hAT Where Q = heat flow, J/s A = surface

Convection heat-transfer data are often reported as a heat-transfer coefficient h, defined by
Q = hAΔT
Where Q = heat flow, J/s
A = surface area, m2
ΔT = temperature difference, K
The dimensionless form of h, called the Stanton number, is a combination of h, fluid density ρ, specific heat cp, and flow velocity V. Derive the Stanton number if it is proportional to h.
