    This document shows the overall heat transmission coefficients for different fluid-transmission surface-fluid combinations. Heat transmission is lowest when air or gas is on both sides of the transmission surface, ranging from 1.0 to 3.0 Btu/ft2 hr oF. Heat transmission is highest when water is on both sides, ranging from 40 to 205 Btu/ft2 hr oF. The coefficients are given in both common U.S. and SI units.
