Table 2 summarizes the existing correlations in literature for various heat transfer modes for both single-phase and two-phase systems in different geometric configurations. It can be seen that the heat transfer coefficient depends on surface geometry, the driving force of the fluid motion, thermal properties of the fluid, and flow properties.
