The overall convective heat transfer from smooth circular cylinders
Abstract
An investigation of the published results of heat transfer studies for both natural convection and crossflow forced convection is conducted. It is found that the wide dispersion in the experimental data for the heat transfer from smooth circular cylinders can be attributed to various factors associated with the experiments. Natural convection in horizontal and inclined cylinders is considered. The cases of a cylinder with cross flow and of a yawed cylinder are investigated in connection with studies involving forced convection.
