Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The Nusselt number is the function of Reynolds number and Prandtl number is to be proved.

Concept introduction: Nusselt number is the ratio of convective heat transfer to the conductive heat transfer.

It is represented by Nu .

  Nu=hDk .

Prandtl number is the ratio of kinematic viscosity to the thermal diffusivity.

It is denoted by Pr .

  Pr=μcpk .

Multiply the both sides of given equation by DGμ and left hand side by kk .
