Variation of heat transfer eoeficent in forced convection 5.9, EPILOGUE Heat transfer rate in forced convection is more than natural convection. As flow rate of fluid increases, the value of heat transfer coefficient also increases, Further, due to decrease in fluid density with the temperature rise, the turbulence increases in the flow, which causes a0 jncrease in heat transfer coefficient.
