Measurement of the turbulent flow field in a free-surface jet of water
Measurements of the mean velocity and turbulence intensity are presented for a rectangular jet of water ejecting into a gaseous ambient. Data are reported for streamwise locations up to 30 nozzle widths from t...

Heat transfer during the melting of ice around a horizontal, isothermal cylinder
An experimental investigation of the melting of ice around a horizontal, isothermal cylinder is performed. Emphasis is placed on interpreting the heat transfer mechanisms which control solid-liquid interface p...

Interaction of external and double-diffusive convection in linearly salt-stratified systems
A series of experiments has been performed for a linearly salt-stratified system heated from below. The experiments were intended to investigate the relative influence of external and double-diffusive convecti...

Effect of surroundings on the transient energy transfer in a layer of radiating gas
An analysis is presented for the transient cooling or heating of a stagnant layer of hot radiating gas surrounded by a cold gas capable of absorbing and emitting radiation. Scattering of radiation is neglected...

Heat transfer with laminar flow in a concentric annulus with prescribed wall temperatures
An analysis has been performed to determine the heat transfer charac-teristics for laminar forced-convection flow in a concentric annulus with prescribed surface temperatures. The temperatures of the inside an...

Heat transfer in a radiating fluid with slug flow in a parallel-plate channel
As a step towards a better understanding of combined conduction, convection, and radiation, fully developed heat transfer in slug flow in a flat duct between two parallel plates is considered. The flat duct co...
