Summary

AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF HEAT TRANSFER AROUND FOUR CYLINDERS CLOSELY SPACED IN A CROSS-FLOW OF AIR HAS BEEN CONDUCTED. THE CYLINDERS ARE SETTLED IN TANDEM WITH EQUAL DISTANCES BETWEEN CENTERS. THE REYNOLDS NUMBER RANGES FROM 104 TO 5 X 104. IT IS FOUND THAT THERE EXISTS A CRITICAL REYNOLDS NUMBER AT WHICH THE HEAT TRANSFER BEHAVIOR CHANGES DRASTICALLY. VARIATIONS OF CHARACTERISTIC FEATURES OF THE MEAN AND LOCAL NUSSELT NUMBERS ARE DISCUSSED IN RELATION TO THE LENGTH OF THE VORTEX FORMATION REGION BEHIND THE CYLINDER. (AUTHORS' SUMMARY.
