Natural Convection Heat Transfer and Boundary Layer Transition for Vertical Heated Cylinders

Creator:

Goodrich, Sam S.

Abstract:

In recent years, the global nuclear industry has placed a greater emphasis on passively safe reactor designs. In particular, much attention and design work has been applied to engineered systems for passive cooling of nuclear fuel, whether it be loaded in a core or stored in spent fuel pools. The...

Dissertation
An experimental study of natural convection heat transfer from a horizontal cylinder array vertically aligned to and confined by a single wall and two walls

Creator:

Al-Alusi, Thamir R.

Abstract:

Convection heat transfer was experimentally investigated for two different geometries. One case had three horizontal cylinders in a vertical plane placed between two vertical walls. The second case had three horizontal cylinders in a vertical plane with only one vertical wall. Several different cylinder center-tocenter spacings were investigated. The wall...

Dissertation
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...

Masters Thesis
Fully developed laminar natural convection in a vertical parallel plate channel with symmetric uniform wall temperature

Creator:

Willie, Robert H.

Abstract:

Described in this thesis is an investigation of the fully developed natural convection heat transfer in a vertical channel formed by two infinitely wide parallel plates maintained at a uniform wall temperature. Closed-form solutions for the velocity and temperature profiles are developed along with local and averaged Nusselt numbers. The...

Masters Thesis
Stability analysis on single-phase natural circulation in Argonne Lead Loop Facility

Creator:

Tang, Hong

Abstract:

Natural convection provides a means for circulating fluids without the use of pumps. This type of system is of great interest for a wide variety of applications, including solar heaters, process industry, and nuclear reactors. Natural convection will play a vital role in the area of passive safety and reliability,...
