in what way biot number is differ from nusselt number?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / venkatesh n
nusselt number quantifies how much the convection heat transfer could be higher when compared with the conduction heat transfer, if the fluid were stationary.
biot number provides a way to compare the conduction resistance within a solid body to the convection resistance external to that body (offered by the surrounding fluid) for heat transfer.

Answer / shashank
biot number is used In partial unsteady state heat transfer and it is the ratioof conduction resistance of that body and external convention resistance of fluid.....( means when a solid body is surrounded by a fluid )
where as nussult no corresponds to fluid ie fluid layer which is just near the solid body ( assume pipe ) acts as solid and type of heat transfer is conduction here..... and above this fluid layer convention is taking place....
nussult no is the ratio of this conduction resistance of FLUID to convention t resistance of FLUID....

QUANTUM COMPUTING - EXAMPLE 32.2 : (a) If | 001 > = | 1 >, | 111 > = | 7 >, find the 2 possible values of ( | 001 > + | 1 > + | 7 > ) ( | 111 > ). (b) In quantum money, a duplicate will have probability P of passing the verification test of a bank, if the total number of photons on the bank note is N. The would be counterfeiter has a probability p of success in duplicating the quantum money correctly for each photon. Guess the relationship of P, p and N as a mathematical formula involving natural logarithm ln.

QUANTUM BIOLOGY - EXAMPLE 33.8 : (a) Let ^ be the symbol of power where 1 ^ 2 = 1 x 1 = 1, 2 ^ 2 = 2 x 2 = 4. Let the number of electrons in a human body to be 10 ^ 28 = A, the number of all of the grains of sand on Earth planet to be 7 x (10 ^ 20) = B, the number of all the stars in the visible sky to be 8 x (10 ^ 3) = C. By assuming that every star in the visible sky has the same number of grains of sand as on Earth planet, prove by mathematical calculations that there are more electrons in one human body compared to the number of all of the grains of sand on the stars in the visible sky. (b) The incoming solar radiation to the Earth's surface is mainly from sun. Around 51 % of the radiation is absorbed by Earth's surface. Around 19 % is absorbed by atmosphere and clouds. In term of reflection, 4 % of the radiation is from surface of Earth, 6 % is reflected by atmosphere and the rest is reflected by clouds. Find the percentage of radiation absorbed by and reflected by biological beings on Earth, with reason for your response.
