Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation heat transfer at a surface having both specular and diffuse reflectance components
Ephraim M Sparrow,S. L. Lin +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of analysis has been devised for determining the radiant interchange among surfaces, each of which may have both specular and diffuse reflectance components, and specific analytical and numerical consideration is given to radiant interchange in cylindrical and conical cavities and to radiant transport through a circular tube.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experiments on the buoyant plume above a heated horizontal wire
R. J. Forstrom,Ephraim M Sparrow +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the free-convection temperature field within a buoyant plume rising from a heated horizontal wire was explored experimentally, and the laminar plume exhibited a slow, regular swaying motion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Local and average transfer coefficients due to an impinging row of jets
R.N. Koopman,Ephraim M Sparrow +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined the local transfer coefficients which result from the impingement of a row of circular jets on a plane surface by means of the naphthalene sublimation technique in conjunction with an innovative data acquisition system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat transfer coefficients for the upstream face of a perforated plate positioned normal to an oncoming flow
TL;DR: In this article, a regular array of hexagonal holes are arranged on equilateral triangular centers, and this regular geometry gives rise to a symmetry pattern whereby each hole is surrounded by a hexagonal region, the boundaries of which are symmetry lines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experiments on turbulent-flow phenomena in eccentric annular ducts
V. K. Jonsson,Ephraim M Sparrow +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a wide-ranging experimental study aimed at determining both the details of the flow field and the pressure drop and friction factor characteristics for turbulent flow in eccentric annular ducts was performed.
