HEAT TRANSFER ENHANCEMENT IN PLATES BY NATURAL CONVECTION WITH AND WITHOUT VERTICAL CONFINING WALLS
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Natural Convection flow in a vertical channel with internal objects is encountered in several technological applications of particular interest of heat dissipation from electronic circuits, refrigerators, heat exchangers, nuclear reactors fuel elements, dry cooling towers, and home ventilation etc.This study deals with the study of natural convection in horizontal plate with and without vertical confining walls. The parameters varied during the experimentation are heat input, aspect ratio (the ratio of gap of horizontal plate with respect to vertical plate and gap of horizontal plate from bottom to top). The present study aims to determine the heat transfer characteristics, along the plate for the selection of optimum dimension for design purpose. Further, the influences of aspect ratio on the performance characteristics of heat transfer will be studied.
