Summary

The paper reports experimental results of natural convection heat transfer to liquid helium in a rotating field in the range of 1600-3700 rpm. Test surfaces are vertical plates (10 mm width, 5 mm height) with rectangular channels in a radial direction and upward- and downward-facing horizontal plates (8 mm diameter at radial distances of 0.3 m). The results show that the heat transfer for vertical plates is approximately the same as that for horizontal ones facing upward, independent of the channel gap size in the range of 0.4-5 mm and direction of the Coriolis force. The heat transfer for the horizontal plates facing downward and upward are compared and calculated.
