Natural Convection Heat Transfer From Horizontal Cylinders in a Vertical Arra Confined Between Parallel Walls
Laminar natural convection from an array of horizontal isothermal cylinders confined between two vertical walls, at low Rayleigh numbers, is investigated by theoretical and numerical methods. The height of the walls is kept constant, however, number of the cylinders and their spacing, the distance between the walls and Rayleigh number have been varied. The optimal spacing (confining walls) and ...
متن کاملNatural Convection Heat Transfer from two Horizontal Cylinders
Natural convection heat transfer from a single horizontal cylinder and a pair of vertically aligned horizontal cylinders is investigated. Surface heat transfer distributions around the circumference of the cylinders are presented for Rayleigh numbers of 2 x 10, 4 x 10 and 6 x 10 and a range of cylinder spacings of 1.5, 2 and 3 diameters. With a cylinder pairing the lower cylinder is unaffected ...
متن کاملNatural convection between two horizontal coaxial cylinders
The objective of our paper is to start the theoretical investigation of the most commonly used mathematical model for natural convection in a horizontal annulus. First, one shows existence of solutions for the unsteady problem. Then, for any Prandtl number and inverse relative gap width, existence and stability of a steady solution is proved, provided that the Rayleigh number is sufficiently sm...
متن کاملNumerical Study of Natural Convection Heat Transfer in a Horizontal Wavy Absorber Solar Collector Based on the Second Law Analysis
Literature about entropy generation analysis of a wavy enclosure is scare. In this paper. a FORTRAN cod using an explicit finite-volume method was provided for estimating the entropy production due to the natural convection heat transfer in a cosine wavy absorber solar collector. The volumetric entropy generation terms both the heat transfer term and the friction term were straightly calculated...
متن کاملNatural convection heat transfer above heated horizontal surfaces
An extensive reasoned review of the results available in the literature for free convection heat transfer from a heated flat plate facing upwards, is conducted. The review is organized in the form of a table, so as to give the reader the opportunity to compare the heat transfer data, expressed through dimensionless equations, as well as the conditions under which these data were obtained. A com...
