Chilton and Colburn J-factor analogy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chilton and Colburn J-factor analogy is probably the most successful analogy from heat, momentum, and mass transfer analogies. It is written as follows,
(f/2) = JH = (h*(NPr)2/3/cp*G) = JD = (k'c*(NPr)2/3/Vav*
This equation permits the prediction of an unknown transfer coefficient when one of the other coefficients is unknown.
