Numerical calculations of laminar and turbulent natural convection in water in rectangular channels heated and cooled isothermally on the opposing vertical walls

TL;DR: In this article, a laminar model for 2 × 1 and 1 × 1 enclosures for Ra from 106 to 109 and Pr = 5.12 and 9.17, respectively, and a k-ϵ turbulent model for a square enclosure from 1010 to 1011, with Pr = 6.7.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive, theoretically based, correlating equations for free convection from isothermal spheres

TL;DR: In this article, the local and mean Nusselt number for free convection from an isothermal sphere as a function of the Rayleigh and Prandtl numbers are derived.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Reinterpretation of the Turbulent Prandtl Number

TL;DR: In this paper, the eddy viscosity at any location in fully developed turbulent flow in a round pipe is shown by an exact analysis to be simply the ratio of the shear stress due to the time-averaged turbulent fluc...
