Free Convection Heat Transfer from a Row of Horizontal Cylinders

Abstract:

Steady laminar free convection in air from parallel circular cylinders set side-by-side is studied numerically. The SIMPLE-C algorithm is used for the solution of the mass, momentum, and energy transfer governing equations. Simulations are performed for tube-arrays consisting of 10 equally-spaced cylinders, for different center-to-center separation distances in the range between 1.4 and 6 cylinder-diameters, and for Rayleigh numbers spanning between 101 and 105.
