Nusselt Number For Flow Perpendicular To Arrays Of Cylinders In The Limit Of Small Reynolds And Large Peclet Numbers, Ashok S. Sangani, Wei Wang Jan 1997

Nusselt Number For Flow Perpendicular To Arrays Of Cylinders In The Limit Of Small Reynolds And Large Peclet Numbers, Ashok S. Sangani, Wei Wang

Ashok S. Sangani

The problem of determining the Nusselt number N, the nondimensional rate of heat or mass transfer, from an array of cylindrical particles to the surrounding fluid is examined in the limit of small Reynolds number Re and large Peclet number Pe. N in this limit can be determined from the details of flow in the immediate vicinity of the particles. These are determined accurately using a method of multipole expansions for both ordered and random arrays of cylinders. The results for N/Pe^1/3 are presented for the complete range of the area fraction of cylinders. The results of numerical simulations for …
