About 8W/m2K for MS Steel against air convection
stainless steel
You cannot have a general answer for this. The comparison in strength depends on the chemical composition or grade of each, as well as the heat treatment and quenching method each received.
A figure of merit for copper is 231A figure of merit for stainless steel is 8.1A figure of merit for steel (mild) is 32A figure of merit for aluminum is 136.The units are BTU / H * ft * Degrees F.For a given length of time copper will conduct almost twice as much heat as aluminum and 28 times as much as stainless steel (but only about 7 times as much as regular steel). This is why there are copper bottomed stainless steel pots.From the definition of thermal conductivity: for 1 Ft cube of copper it would take 231 BTU per hour to maintain a 1 degree (Fahrenheit) temperature difference across the the length of the cube. This compares to 0.04 BTU for a 1 ft. cube of fiberglass insulation.
Unlike the 300 series stainless 400 series stainless can be hardened by heat giving moderate corrosion resistance with more durability than 300 series stainless. It is commonly used in pump shafts for equipment requiring a higher torque spec than 316 SS can provide
Standard Specification for Heat-Resisting Chromium and Chromium-Nickel Stainless Steel Plate, Sheet, and Strip for Pressure Vessels
The heat transfer coefficient of steel to water can vary depending on factors such as temperature, flow rate, and surface roughness. However, typical values range from 500 to 5,000 W/m^2·K.
The convective heat transfer coefficient of water is a measure of how easily heat can move through water. A higher convective heat transfer coefficient means heat can transfer more quickly. In a system, a higher convective heat transfer coefficient can increase the rate of heat transfer, making the system more efficient at exchanging heat.
Stainless steel is a good conductor of heat because it has a high thermal conductivity due to its crystalline structure, allowing heat to transfer quickly through the material. Additionally, stainless steel is often alloyed with other metals like nickel and chromium, which enhance its thermal conductivity properties.
Aluminum conducts heat faster than stainless steel. Aluminum has a higher thermal conductivity than stainless steel, meaning it is able to transfer heat more quickly and evenly. This is why aluminum is commonly used in cooking pots and pans for its superior heat conduction properties.
The convective heat transfer coefficient between water and steel surfaces can vary depending on factors like temperature, flow rate, and surface roughness. However, typical values for this coefficient range from 500 to 10,000 W/m^2*K.
The resistance to heat transfer of the material of the condenser pipe affects the overall heat transfer coefficient by increasing the overall thermal resistance. A higher resistance to heat transfer in the material of the condenser pipe will reduce the heat transfer coefficient, making heat transfer less effective. This can result in reduced efficiency in the condenser's operation.
The overall heat transfer coefficient represents the rate at which heat is transferred between two mediums per unit area and per unit temperature difference. It combines the individual resistances to heat transfer in conduction, convection, and radiation into a single value. A higher overall heat transfer coefficient indicates a more efficient heat transfer process.

Harder than work piece High thermal conductivity High heat transfer coefficient
The heat transfer coefficient of water is a measure of how well water can transfer heat. It is influenced by factors such as temperature, flow rate, and surface area. A higher heat transfer coefficient means that heat can be transferred more efficiently between water and another substance. This is important in heat transfer processes like cooling systems or heating systems, where efficient heat transfer is crucial for optimal performance.
The better conductor is stainless steel.
The convective heat transfer coefficient of water is a measure of how easily heat can transfer through water by convection. It represents the rate at which heat is transferred between a solid surface and water through the movement of fluid particles. A higher convective heat transfer coefficient means that heat can transfer more efficiently, leading to faster heat exchange processes. This coefficient is influenced by factors such as temperature, flow rate, and surface area, and plays a crucial role in various heat transfer applications, such as cooling systems and thermal management.
