Fully developed laminar natural convection in a vertical parallel-plate duct with constant wall heat flux

Creator:

Aktan, Gülçin

Abstract:

The problem of heat transfer due to free convection in a channel formed by two parallel, isoflux, vertical plates is of considerable importance in electronic cooling applications, thermosiphons, the optimum spacing of plates or components, industrial stacks, heat exchangers, nuclear power plants and combustion involving vertical walls. Although in each...
