[TRNSYS-users] Type 556 convective heat transfer coefficient

[henkwitte]

Hello,

Type 556 models the heat transfer between the ground and a buried pipe. An 
important
parameter is the convective heat transfer coefficient, describing the heat 
transfer between
the fluid and the pipe.

What would be the best/easiest way to estimate this coefficient given a 
certain configuration?
