Type of article: Article

Summary

THE CONVECTIVE MOTION IN 2 TYPES OF TUBE ARRAY IS SOLVED NUMER ICALLY BY THE FINITE ANALYTIC METHOD. BOTH IN-LINE TUBE ARRAYS AND STAGGERED TUBE ARRAYS ARE STUDIED. DIFFERENCES IN STREAM FUNCTION, VORTICITY FUNCTION, AND LOCATION OF SEPARATION AND REATTACHMENT FOR FLOW PAST IN-LINE TUBE ARRAYS AND STAGGERED TUBE ARRAY ARE PREDICTED AND COMPARED. THE ZONE OF SEPARATION FOR BOTH ARRAYS TENDS TO INCREASE WITH INCREASING REYNOLDS NUMBER. THE PREDICTED RESULTS ON FLOW FIELD AND HEAT TRANSFER ARE SHOWN TO AGREE WITH AVAILABLE EXPERIMENTAL MEASUREMENTS.
