An experimental investigation was conducted for natural convection
heat transfer in an array of uniformly heated vertical cylinders
in mercury. The test section consisted of seven electrically heated
cylinders of 1.365 inch diameter and 3.825 inch heated length
arranged in an equilateral triangular pattern. In order to preclude
side flow...
Heat transfer from a vertical flat plate in an infinite pool of
mercury was investigated. Velocity profiles were measured with a
hot-film anemometer and simultaneous temperature profiles measured
with thermocouples in this low Prandtl number liquid metal. Constant
heat flux plates at Grashof numbers of 9 x 10⁸ and 4...
This thesis is concerned with the analysis of heat transfer in a tube with forced flow under conditions of an arbitrary variation of wall heat flux both axially and circumferentially. This total study is separated into two distinct problems which are presented separately. The first is the case of a...
A study was conducted to determine the heat transfer characteristics
of pin finned heat sinks in natural convection. Three pin
diameters were studied: 0.238 cm, 0.318 cm and 0.396 cm. The pins
were attached to the base in two arrangements, triangular and
rectangular, forming a horizontal array. Pin spacing was...
A steady gas convection model of heat transfer to a horizontal
cylinder immersed in a gas fluidized bed is presented. Contributions due to flow within
attached bubbles as well as the interstitial voids are
included. The interstitial flow is approximated as flow within a series
of double cusped channels and...
