Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a regression analysis was applied to the nearly 5000 existing experimental data points for natural convection boiling heat transfer, which can best be represented by subdividing the substances into four groups (water, hydrocarbons, cryogenic fluids and refrigerants) and employing a different set of dimensionless numbers for each group of substances.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: For condensation from a vapour-gas mixture flowing parallel to a plane horizontal condensing surface and normal to a horizontal tube, approximate theoretically-based equations are obtained relating the mass flux of vapour to the condense surface (condensation rate) to the free-stream and condensate surface conditions as mentioned in this paper.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the heat transfer coefficient between an electrically heated single horizontal tube and air-solid fluidized beds of glass beads, dolomite, sand, silicon carbide and alumina particles.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional time-dependent numerical computation method has been developed to determine laminar free convection in closed cavities and forced convection, both in ducts and open cavities.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of axial conduction in the flat plate on the interfacial temperature are significant in the constant heat flux case, and correlated by the dimensionless parameter KD.




Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of liquid viscosity in film boiling is determined by postulating the existence of a hydrodynamic boundary layer superposed on potential flow and using a perturbation technique.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, an analysis was performed which describes the moisture migration in a slab of an unsaturated porous material for the condition that the temperature of one surface is suddenly increased to a higher value whereas the other surface is maintained constant.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental investigation into heat transfer in a water layer confined by two horizontal plates, heated from below and cooled from above, has been conducted and it was concluded that there exist convective motions having a scale comparable to the distance between the two plates and they make a dominant contribution to heat transfer.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a regular perturbation analysis is presented for three laminar natural convection flows in liquids with temperature dependent viscosity: a freely-rising plane plume, the flow above a horizontal line source on an adiabatic surface (a plane wall plume) and the flow adjacent to a vertical uniform flux surface.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the instantaneous shape of the melt volume was recorded photographically and local heat transfer coefficients at the solid-liquid interface, determined from these data, were determined using the correlation of the heat transfer results in dimensionless form.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the heat and mass transfer characteristics of mixed convection flow along vertical and inclined flat plates under the combined buoyancy effects of thermal and mass diffusion are analyzed. But the results for the local Nusselt number and the local Sherwood number were not analyzed.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, an empirical formula for the beam length distribution that enables the total exchange areas to be calculated for any gas absorption model (i.e., which is not restricted to an exponential absorption law) from the view factors in a diatherm medium is proposed.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the boundary-layer structure on the side walls of a rectangular cavity filled with a porous material is determined using an integral relations approach, which leads to results for the core mass flux, for core-temperature gradient and for the heat transfer characteristics which are in excellent agreement with numerical solutions of the boundary layer equations.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the same scaling law as that proposed by Chen and Rodi for correlating the centerline velocity and temperature of a buoyant jet discharged into a uniform temperature ambient is derived from the dimensional analysis of the general governing equations and boundary conditions, and compared with the experimental measurements.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of buoyancy on the turbulent mixed flow of free and forced convection was investigated experimentally and theoretically and an analytical model was proposed, based upon the damping factor concept of the turbulent fluctuations due to viscous action and buoyancy force.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study has been made of the local heat transfer on the plane isothermal surface in the normal impinging round hot jet of combustion products produced by a rapid heating tunnel burner.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a transformation of the laminar boundary layer equations, similar to the transformation of Kao et al. (1977), is presented which allows arbitrary distributions of both wall temperature and blowing.
