Hello all,

I'm looking for heat transfer coefficients for neoprene rubber (or any rubber in that case).

Mainly:

1. Conductivity
2. Emissivity
3. Specific Heat
4. Convection coefficient with air (not enclosed air)

Thank you very much! It is greatly appreciated! If the reference is provided it's going to be even more!

Thank you in advance!

For Cp and k



For total emissivity, rubber - glossy finish at 74degF = 0.945 ( Perry Chem Engg Handbook, chapter on radiation, table 5-6, page 5-29)

Convection coeff should be calculated - pls look up any heat transfer textbook and read up on natural convection heat transfer)

The ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals has those values in the material properties table.

Regards,

DB
