    The document discusses the overall heat transfer coefficient (U-value), which measures a material's ability to conduct heat across a surface area. It explains the formula for calculating U-value and defines the terms in the formula. The document then covers the three mechanisms of heat transfer - conduction, convection, and radiation - and factors that influence each. It describes methods for determining individual heat transfer coefficients and provides examples of applying overall heat transfer coefficient calculations in industries like building insulation.

    INTRODUCTION
    The overall heat transfer coefficient, also known as
    U-value or overall thermal conductance, is a measure
    of the overall ability of a material or system to
    conduct heat. It represents the combined effects of
    conduction, convection, and radiation in transferring
    heat across a given surface area.
    Calculation of U-value
    •Formula for calculating U-value: 1/U = 1/hi + δ/λ +
    1/ho
    •Explanation of each term in the formula (hi, δ, λ, ho)
    •Units used for U-value and its components
