NATURAL CONVECTIVE HEAT DISSIPATION FROM A SQUARE BAR/RECTANGULAR CHANNEL ASSEMBLY
摘要
The heat transfer performance under natural convection
conditions of an effectively two-dimensional channel
and bar geometry was studied by a combination of thermal
measurement, schlieren flow visualisation and numerical
analysis. The entry and exits of the channels were
obstructed using half width baffles involving sixteen permutations of position. It was found that certain baffle combinations gave enhanced heat transfer coefficients over those for the open channel, this information being relevant to the thermal design of electronic equipment.
