Summary
An analysis has been performed to determine the heat transfer charac-teristics for laminar forced-convection flow in a concentric annulus with prescribed surface temperatures. The temperatures of the inside and outside walls of the annulus are considered to be different. The temperature distri-butions were determined by utilizing the method of superposition. By way of illustration, numerical results for heat fluxes, mixing cup temperatures, and Nusselt numbers are presented graphically.
