Heat-transfer from the turbulent flow of liquid metals in tubes

The Soviet Journal of Atomic Energy Aims and scope

Abstract

In this article, the results are given of investigations of heat-transfer for turbulent flow of alkali and heavy liquid metals in tubes. The heat-transfer coefficients were obtained by using two different methods: by the measurement of the temperature field in the flow of the liquid metal and calculating the coefficients, and by the measurement of the wall temperature and the mean liquid-metal temperature. A comparison of the results obtained by these methods leads to certain results concerning the magnitude of the thermal-contact resistance.
