Context: I am simulating temperature stratification in a subtropical reservoir with Delft3D. The heat flux at thewater surface is being calculated with the Ocean model. To calculate the heat flux due to forced convection of sensible heat, the Stanton number is necessary. From different studies, I know that values of 0.00145 to 0.0016 are usual. Now my question is: there is any PHYSICAL upper limit for the Stanton number? would you say a value of 0.0031 is too high?
Thanks in advance.
In case of mass transfer, the ratio of flux absorbed by surface to flux passing over surface. Either the surface won't absorb any fraction of flux or it will absorb all flux passing through the surface. The lower bound is 0 and upper bound is 1 with mass transfer.
