Summary

A new equivalent Reynolds number model, based on the heat-momentum analogy, is developed in this study. This model is then shown to predict the experimental Nusselt number of 1197 data points from 18 sources with an average deviation of 13.64 percent. The data are for tube internal diameters between 3.14 and 20 mm.
