A non-dimensional number generally associated with natural convection heat transfer is
A. Grashoff number
B. Nusselt number
C. Weber number
D. Prandtl number
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
The Grashof number (Gr) is a dimensionless number in fluid dynamics and heat transfer which approximates the ratio of the buoyancy to the viscous force acting on a fluid. It frequently arises in the study of situations involving natural convection and is analogous to the Reynolds number.Related Questions on Heat and Mass Transfer
