[TRNSYS-users] Hconv and convective heat transfer coefficient

Dear Adnan,

Though your paper is interesting and innovative, it does not answer to 
my questions. Indeed my problem is more about the process within TRNSYS 
than establishing the CHTC.

Again my concern is about the use of the CHTC. It seems that TRNSYS 
calculates another CHTC in order to get a HCONV. I would like to know 
the relationship between both and also why Req is close to zero, while  
I set up a high CHTC.

Hopefully someone has the answer.
