Freely convective heat transfer at the external surface of a vertical isothermal cylinder

  • Published:
Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Numerical and experimental results on the freely convective heat transfer of a vertical isothermal cylinder are analyzed. Formulas are proposed for the calculation of local and average heat-transfer coefficients for Pr=0.01−100.
