Summary

MEASUREMENTS OF THE HEAT TRANSFER BY NATURAL CONVECTION ACROSS VERTICAL AND INCLINED AIR LAYERS ARE REPORTED. MEASUREMENTS COVERED A RANGE IN RAYLEIGH NUMBER FROM 1,000 TO 100 M, AND A RANGE IN ORIENTATION FROM HORIZONTAL TO VERTICAL. THE EFFECT OF THE EMISSIVITY OF THE BOUNDING WALL ON THE HEAT TRANSFER ACROSS THE AIR LAYER WAS EVALUATED FROM MEASUREMENTS OBTAINED RESPECTIVELY WITH A LOW AND A HIGH VALUE OF THE WALL EMISSIVITY.
