Summary

THE NATURAL CIRCULATION OF NEAR 277 K WATER IN A VERTICAL CAVITY HEATED FROM THE SIDE WAS STUDIED EXPERIMENTALLY IN A 0.74-M-TALL ENCLOSURE. THE RESULTS OF A SCALE ANALYSIS WERE USED IN ORDER TO CORRELATE THE OVERALL WALL-TO-WALL HEAT TRANSFER RATE MEASURED EXPERIMENTALLY IN THE RAYLEIGH NUMBER RANGE 100 MILLIONS-100 MILLIARDS. AN ANALYTICAL SIMILARITY SOLUTION WAS OBTAINED FOR THE SLENDER ENCLOSURE LIMIT.
