Colburn analogy is applicable for the value of Prandtl number from_________________?
Correct answer: B. 0.6 to 120
- A. 0.001 to 1
- B. 0.6 to 120
- C. 0.5 to 5
- D. 120 to 400
Explanation
The Colburn heat and mass transfer analogy is commonly applied over approximately 0.6 < Pr < 120. The other ranges either begin below its usual lower limit or extend beyond its standard application range.
