Abstract :
The dimensionless Nusselt number is one of the important parameters in convection heat transfer, which can be considered as a measure of the heat transferred from the body through convection. In heat transfer, the Nusselt number indicates the rate of displacement heat transfer to conductive heat transfer. When heat transfer occurs only through conduction, it is called conduction limit, and its calculation is particularly important in the industry. This research uses a panel numerical method to calculate the conductivity limit for two-sided and one-side active plates for square, circular and triangular cases. Finally, by comparing all the results, the performance of panel numerical method for calculating the conductivity limit was confirmed.
