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.

Natural-convection heat transfer from a plate with arbitrary inclination

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental study is described concerning natural-convection heat transfer from a plate with arbitrary inclination, and the results of heat transfer coefficients are represented in the relation of average Nu number vs. Ra number.

Characteristics of a turbulent natural convection boundary layer along a vertical flat plate

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed hot-wire measurement of a turbulent natural convection boundary layer is made paying close attention to the characteristics of the near-wall region which has not been clarified quantitatively.

Bench mark solutions to natural convection heat transfer problem around a horizontal circular cylinder

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-accuracy bench mark solution for the natural convection flow around a horizontal circular cylinder with uniform surface temperature is presented for small Rayleigh numbers (e.g. Ra = 103 and 104).

Direct numerical simulation of two-dimensional turbulent natural convection in an enclosed cavity

TL;DR: In this article, a two-dimensional direct numerical simulation of the natural convection flow of air in a differentially heated square cavity was performed for a Rayleigh number of 10 10, and the simulation was commenced from isothermal and quiescent conditions and was allowed to proceed to a statistical steady state.

An analysis of laminar free-convection flow and heat transfer about a flat plate parallel to the direction of the generating body force

Simon Ostrach
TL;DR: In this article, the free-convection flow and heat transfer about a flat plate parallel to the direction of the body force are formally analyzed and the type of flow is found to be dependent on the Grashof number alone.

Analysis of turbulent free-convection boundary layer on flat plate

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used Karman's integrated momentum equation for the boundary layer and data on the wall-shearing stress and heat transfer in forced-convection flow.

An experimental investigation of turbulent natural convection in air at low pressure along a vertical heated flat plate

TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental investigation of turbulent natural convection in air is described, and the results show good agreement with early investigations and remarkable agreement with the analytical correlation of Bayley [4]: Nu = 0·10 Ra 1 3 for Rayleigh numbers up to 1012.
