    f) Density of the solid body

    Explanation:

    We know that heat transfer due to convection is given by

    Q=hAΔT

    Where

    A is the area, which represent the geometry of solid body or surface.

    h is the heat transfer coefficient which depends on

    1. Thermal conductivity of fluid

    2. Motion of fluid

    3. Type of fluid flow (Laminar or Turbulent)

    4. Viscosity of fluid

    5. Surface condition

    So from the above parameters, we can say that heat transfer due to convection does not depends on density of the solid body.
