This document provides an overview of convection heat transfer. It defines convection and the controlling equation for convection heat transfer. It describes factors that affect convection including geometry, flow type, boundary conditions, and fluid properties. It introduces important dimensionless groups used to analyze convection like the Prandtl number, Reynolds number, Grashof number, and Nusselt number. It then summarizes equations for forced convection over plates and cylinders/spheres. It also covers internal forced convection in circular tubes and natural convection over surfaces.
