    Hi Leen,<br>
    <br>
    I'm not familiar with the calculation involving the Grasshof number.
    The formula given is hc= 4+4v, where hc is the convection
    coefficient and v is the wind velocity. The formula is probably
    derived empirically (don't know for certain). Are you definitely
    talking about the convection element of heat transfer or are you
    talking lw radiation?<br>
    <br>
    Regards<br>
    <br>
    Chris<br>

      <div>Hi Chris,</div>
      <div> </div>
      <div>CIBSE suggest to replace g with gcos(theta) in the Grasshof
        number. That means, it accounts for the roof being tilted in
        natural convection. When it comes to roofs, there is another
        aspects that starts to be important ... the roof finishing in
        tiles will have a 'detoriated' velocity underneath the tiles. It
        is mainly that one directing the convective losses ...</div>
