Plain plate-fin, surface 12.00T
Procedure Compact_HX_ND('p_plate-fin_s1200T', Re: f,j_H) is a non-dimensional procedure that returns the friction factor and the Colburn j factor for external flow through plain plate-fins with surface 12.00T given the Reynolds number. The values calculated are based on a best fit curve to experimental data. These data are from Kays and London (1984) p. 231.
