Type of article: Article

Summary

A series of computations was conducted in which three principal parameters governing the heat transfer in this geometry (channel expansion ratio, Reynolds number and Prandtl number) were systematically changed. As a result, detailed relations between these parameters and the fundamental heat transfer characteristics have been elucidated. Some important findings are explained.
