Flow and heat transfer in tube assemblies
Abstract
In the present paper, methods are developed for predicting pressure drop and heat transfer in closely spaced tube bundles over a wide range of conditions. The procedures proposed are sufficiently economical to warrant parametric explorations of laminar flows. A similar effort is being made in the more important area of turbulent flow.
