Graetz number is given by__________________?

Correct answer: A. mCp/kL

  • A. mCp/kL
  • B. kL/mCp
  • C. mCp/kμ
  • D. kμ/mCp

Explanation

The Graetz number compares convective heat transport by the flowing stream with axial conduction, and is written as mCp/(kL), where m is the mass flow rate. Hence option a gives the standard form.
