A Study Of Turbulent Heat Transfer From A Flat Plate With Transverse Temperature Variations, John C. W. Kwan May 1969

A Study Of Turbulent Heat Transfer From A Flat Plate With Transverse Temperature Variations, John C. W. Kwan

Theses and Dissertations

Heat transfer in turbulent flow from external surfaces has been investigated extensively in the past. Most of the theoretical and experimental work deals with a two dimensional boundary layer on isothermal or uniform heat flux surfaces with longitudinal temperature variation. However, little attention has ever been paid to the case in which the temperature of the plate varies transversely. This is a three dimensional problem due to the spanwise variation of the thermal boundary layer. The most elementary example of this is the boundary formed by the sudden temperature impulse that acts transversely across a flat plate as shown in …


A Study Of Turbulent Heat Transfer From Smooth And Rough Flat Plate Surfaces, Philip Tsungwen Lin May 1969

A Study Of Turbulent Heat Transfer From Smooth And Rough Flat Plate Surfaces, Philip Tsungwen Lin

Theses and Dissertations

Experimental investigations of the surface roughness effect on heat transfer have been extensively conducted since the initial work by Cope; however, they were mostly limited to internal flow geometries--circular tubes, annuli or rectangular ducts.
