Combined Free and Forced Convection Heat Transfer From a Heated Tube to a Transverse Air Stream

TLDR
In this paper, heat transfer by combined free and forced convection from a heated tube to a transverse air stream has been experimentally studied over a wide range of Grashof and Reynolds numbers.
Abstract
Heat transfer by combined free and forced convection from a heated tube to a transverse air stream has been experimentally studied over a wide range of Grashof and Reynolds numbers. The data obtained have been correlated with Gr/Re2.5 as the correlating parameter. Criteria for transition from free convection to combined convection and from combined convection to forced convection have also been obtained.

The Overall Convective Heat Transfer from Smooth Circular Cylinders

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the error due to heat conduction to the supports is particularly important with natural convection, especially where the heat loss and the temperature rise of the cylinder are calculated from the voltage drop across it.

A theoretical study of laminar mixed convection from a horizontal cylinder in a cross stream

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of laminar mixed convection from a horizontal isothermal cylinder is considered and the free stream direction is assumed to be horizontal and perpendicular to the cylinder axis.

Heat transfer from a horizontal circular wire at small reynolds and grashof numbers-ii

TL;DR: In this article, heat transfer from a horizontal fine cylinder by pure forced convection at small Reynolds numbers or by pure free convection in small Grashof numbers is analyzed without restriction on Prandtl number by the method of joining the circumferential average temperature in the concentric layer around the cylinder governed mainly by conduction to that in the wake or plume governed mainly with convection.

Numerical simulation of vortex shedding past a circular cylinder under the influence of buoyancy

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of buoyancy on the Nusselt number, wake structures, temporal lift and drag forces have been studied, and the degeneration of the Karman vortex street into twin vortices is numerically simulated.
