Heat transfer from the inner wall of an annulus to subcooled
water in turbulent parallel flow was studied. The inner core of the
annulus consisted of wires varying from 0.0019 to 0.0197 inch in
diameter. The outer tube consisted of a 1.01 inch diameter glass
tube 24 inches long. Diameter...
The thermal wave technique has been explored for the use of liquid thermal conductivity measurement and flow property diagnostics in this dissertation. For liquid thermal conductivity measurements, an experimental technique based on the thermal wave approach is developed. A stainless steel strip functions as both a heating element and a...
An experimental study is described in which time-average local heat
transfer coefficients were obtained for arrays of horizontal tubes immersed
in a hot fluidized bed. Spatial-averaged heat transfer coefficients, computed
from local values, are also reported. Refractory particles with surface
mean diameters of 2.14 mm and 3.23 mm were fluidized...
