  2. Newton's law of cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_cooling

    The law holds well for forced air and pumped liquid cooling, where the fluid velocity does not rise with increasing temperature difference. Newton's law is most closely obeyed in purely conduction-type cooling. However, the heat transfer coefficient is a function of the temperature difference in natural convective (buoyancy driven) heat transfer.

  3. Thermal neutral zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_neutral_zone

    It can show postural changes where it changes its body shape or moves and exposes different areas to the sun/shade, and through radiation, convection and conduction, heat exchange occurs. Vasomotor responses allow control of the flow of blood between the periphery and the core to control heat loss from the surface of the body.

  4. Heat transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer

    Convective heat transfer, or simply, convection, is the transfer of heat from one place to another by the movement of fluids, a process that is essentially the transfer of heat via mass transfer. The bulk motion of fluid enhances heat transfer in many physical situations, such as between a solid surface and the fluid. [ 10 ]

  5. Convection (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection_(Heat_transfer)

    Convection-cooling is sometimes loosely assumed to be described by Newton's law of cooling. [6] Newton's law states that the rate of heat loss of a body is proportional to the difference in temperatures between the body and its surroundings while under the effects of a breeze. The constant of proportionality is the heat transfer coefficient. [7]

  6. Human thermoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_thermoregulation

    There are four avenues of heat loss: convection, conduction, radiation, and evaporation. If skin temperature is greater than that of the surroundings, the body can lose heat by radiation and conduction. But, if the temperature of the surroundings is greater than that of the skin, the body actually gains heat by radiation and conduction. In such ...

  7. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    It is used in calculating the heat transfer, typically by convection or phase transition between a fluid and a solid. The heat transfer coefficient has SI units in watts per square meter per kelvin (W/m 2 K). The overall heat transfer rate for combined modes is usually expressed in terms of an overall conductance or heat transfer coefficient, U ...

  9. Critical heat flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_heat_flux

    The convective heat transfer between a uniformly heated wall and the working fluid is described by Newton's law of cooling: = where represents the heat flux, represents the proportionally constant called the heat transfer coefficient, represents the wall temperature and represents the fluid temperature.
