... found that a grid with 38,217 nodes and 37,768 elements establish grid independent solution. For the purpose of validation, simulations are performed for the cross flow past a heated rotating circular cylinder in the range of conditions, 20 ≤ Re ≤ 100, and 0.1 ≤  α  ≤ 4. The results are compared...

...Isak Kotcioglu; Ahmet Cansiz In this study, a cross-flow heat recovery-exchanger system operating with unmixed fluids was manufactured and tested. The thermodynamic analysis of the system was presented via determining the variations of exergy loss with Reynolds number. The analysis also included...

...S. C. Haldar; G. S. Kochhar; K. Manohar Conjugate numerical solution of laminar forced convection for cross-flow over a cylinder with external longitudinal fins of finite thickness has been carried out. The rate of heat transfer from the fins increases and that from the free area of the cylinder...

...Zhihua Li; Jane H. Davidson; Susan C. Mantell The drag and convective heat transfer coefficients along the outer surface of lenticular and elliptical tubes with minor-to-major axis ratios of 0.3, 0.5, and 0.8 were determined numerically for cross-flow Reynolds numbers from 500 to 10 4 . The two...
