if continuity equation is applicable(du/dx=0) then u can be taken out of derivative**important to realize that the convection term is when the "CV" that our looking at has bulk flow. Different than when a surface has a convection BCUtility of the equationIt is useful for any material.It is useful for any size or shape. Similar equations can be derived for other coordinate systems.It is easier to derive the more general equation and simplifyIt is safer - as you drop terms you are aware of the reasons.Can we make it more general? (aka its limitations)To use with compressible fluids.To use when all properties vary with temperature. We need numerical solutions (explained later in the book) to solve such problems.To include mass transfer. For example, the equation cannot predict the temperature inside a steak during cooking in an oven since the equation does not include water loss from the steak.
