Natural convection heat transfer from hot vee corrugated plates to cold flat plate

摘要

This experimental investigation deals with the steady state natural convection heat transfer through air at atmospheric pressure from hot vee corrugated plates to a cold flat plate placed above and parallel to it, where the surroundings were mainatained at constant temperature. Different amplitudes of corrugation i.e., H=10mm, 15mm and 25mm were used. The effects of angle of inclination, aspect ratio, temperature difference and Rayleigh number on average convective heat transfer co-efficient were studied.
