Summary

The performance of stainless steel screen regenerator stacks (500 mesh) has been investigated at relatively small flow rates in comparison to conventional operation close to the laminar-turbulent transition range. A modified "single blow" technique was used initially, and an additional comparative procedure is employed to deduce heat transfer rate ratios with respect to a single-wire reference case of heat transfer. The data obtained are two orders of magnitude below "classical" room temperature values at low Reynolds numbers. The fluid is cold nitrogen from a liquid bath at atmospheric pressure.
