Abstract: An experimental study of the effect of eccentricity on forced convective heat transfer was conducted for upward flows in vertical, openended annular channels with a diameter ratio of 0.61, a length to outer diameter ratio ...

Abstract: Natural convective heat transfer in a concentric and a highly eccentric, vertical, open ended, annular channel has been investigated numerically. The inner to outer diameter ratio was 0.61, and the height to hydraulic ...

Abstract: The effect of eccentricity on heat transfer in upward flow in a vertical, openended, annular channel with a diameter ratio of 0.61, an aspect ratio of 18:1, and both internal surfaces heated uniformly has been investigated ...

Abstract: Heat transfer in supercritical water reactors (SCWRs) shows a complex behavior, especially when the temperatures of the water are near the pseudocritical value. For example, a significant deterioration of heat transfer may ...
