Mixed convection in straight and curved channels with buoyancy orthogonal to the forced flow.

Author(s) : LIGRANI P. M., CHOI S.

Type of article: Article

Summary

Four different regimes of behaviour are apparent: pure natural convection, mixed convection with strong buoyancy, mixed convection with weak buoyancy and pure forced convection. Differences in behaviour between these different regimes are discussed, along with curvature influences, the effects of buoyancy on forced flow behaviour, and Nusselt number correlations for the two mixed convection regimes.
