Abstract: Steady state experiments are conducted in a low speed horizontal wind tunnel under mixed convection for five discrete heat sources (aluminum) of nonidentical sizes arranged at different positions on a substrate board ...

Abstract: This paper presents a methodology for obtaining the convective heat transfer coefficient from the wall of a heated aluminium plate, placed in a vertical channel filled with open cell metal foams. For accomplishing this, a ...

Abstract: This paper reports the results of an experimental study to determine the principal thermal conductivities (kx,ky, and kz) of an anisotropic composite medium using an inverse heat transfer analysis. The direct problem ...
