TLDR
The third edition of the second edition as discussed by the authors was published in 1964 and contains basic test data for eleven new surface configurations, including some of the very compact ceramic matrices, in both the English and the Systeme International (SI) system of units.
Abstract
This third edition is an update of the second edition published in 1964. New data and more modern theoretical solutions for flow in the simple geometries are included, although this edition does not differ radically from the second edition. It contains basic test data for eleven new surface configurations, including some of the very compact ceramic matrices. Al dimensions are given in both the English and the Systeme International (SI) system of units.

Pressure Drop in Rectangular Microchannels as Compared With Theory Based on Arbitrary Cross Section

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of different losses, such as developing region, minor flow contraction and expansion, and streaming potential on the measured pressure drop, are investigated, and the results compare well with the theory based on the presure drop in channels of arbitrary cross-section.

Experiments and modeling of the hydraulic resistance and heat transfer of in-line square pin fin heat sinks with top by-pass flow

TL;DR: In this article, a two-branch by-pass model was developed, in which a one-dimensional difference approach was used to model the fluid flow through the heat sink and its top bypass duct.

Heat Transfer and Friction Correlations for Wavy Plate Fin-and-Tube Heat Exchangers

TL;DR: In this paper, a multiple regression technique was used to predict the air-side heat transfer coefficient and friction factor as a function of flow conditions and geometric variables of the heat exchanger.

Design of a novel, intensified heat exchanger for reduced fouling rates

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe an integrated approach into the design and evaluation of a tube bundle heat exchanger that achieves higher heat transfer levels at lower levels of pressure drop, while remaining less susceptible to gas-side fouling.

Performance of Pin Fin Cast Aluminum Coldwalls, Part 1: Friction Factor Correlations

TL;DR: In this article, the friction factor is independent of pin length and Reynolds number, and it is shown that cast pin e n coldwalls provide the best performance and lowest unit cost when castings are economically viable.
