Investigation of Heat Transfer in Pipes Using Dimensionless Numbers

Abstract

This study investigates heat transfer in pipes, focusing on the calculation of three key dimensionless numbers to analyze thermal behavior. Although the experiment was conducted only once, measures were taken to ensure accuracy, and potential sources of error were minimized. Repeating the experiment multiple times and averaging the results would have further improved reliability by reducing the impact of anomalies. Despite this limitation, the primary objective of understanding heat transfer mechanisms through dimensionless numbers was successfully achieved, providing valuable insights into thermal processes.
