β¦ Synopsis
The discharge and heat transfer characteristics of the continuum and slip choked gas flows through a narrow parallel-plate channel with uniform heat flux walls are studied by experimental means, numerical simulation, and analytical approximate solution. The numerical results of the discharge coefficient and the wall surface temperature distributions agree relatively well with the experimental results. The effects of the heat transfer at the walls on the discharge coefficient can be correlated with the dimensionless heat input at the walls. Three kinds of Nusselt numbers which are defined by adiabatic wall, bulk mean, and total temperatures as a reference temperature, respectively, are proposed and the effects of the viscous heating on these Nusselt numbers are clarified.

The present analysis accounts for combined convective and radiant heat transfer to a fluid flowing in a short tube with prescribed wall heat flux. The heat flux distribution used was of sine shape with maximum at the middle of the tube. This solution is known to represent the axial power variation
Naphthalene sublimation experiments were conducted to study heat (mass) transfer enhancement by blockages with staggered round and square holes for turbulent air flows through a wide rectangular channel. The blockages and the channel had the same cross-section. The results showed that the blockages
