In SI units, fouling factor is expressed in __________________?

Correct answer: A. m2°K/W

  • A. m2°K/W
  • B. W/m2°K
  • C. m2°K
  • D. m°K/W

Explanation

Fouling factor is a thermal resistance per unit area, since it is added to heat-transfer resistance on an area basis. Its SI unit is therefore m²·K/W.
