Summary

MEASUREMENTS AND CALCULATIONS OF TRANSIENT MIXED CONVECTION FLOWS ADJACENT TO A FLAT VERTICAL SURFACE ARE PRESENTED. THE SURFACE DISSIPATES A CONSTANT AND UNIFORM HEAT FLUX IN AN AIR STREAM FLOWING AT A UNIFORM AND CONSTANT AMBIENT VELOCITY. THE FREE-STREAM VELOCITY IS IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS THE BUOYANCY-INDUCED FLOW RESULTING IN AN < AIDING > MIXED CONVECTION FLOW. TEMPERATURE AND VELOCITY MEASUREMENTS IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER ARE PRESENTED AND COMPARED TO THE RESULTS OF A FINITE-DIFFERENCE ANALYSIS OF THE FLOW.
