*************************
Heat transfer coefficient
*************************

The heat transfer coefficient is the proportionality constant that links the heat flow to the temperature difference
using the equation [1]. Use the heat transfer coefficient for links with distributed interfaces.


	.. math::
		Q = HTC * A * (T_2 - T_1) \quad [1]
