Summary

The ease of thermal control by means of air natural convection stimulates the investigation of configurations aiming at improving the thermal performance. The effect of adding adiabatic extensions downstream of a vertical isoflux symmetrically heated channel has been experimentally analyzed. Optimal configurations have been identified through the measured wall temperature profiles, with reference to the extension and expansion ratios of the insulated extensions.
