โฆ Synopsis
Experiments were carried out to measure the average natural convection heat transfer from the outside surface of isothermal square cylinders of different lengths and side-lengths at different angles of inclination in both the laminar and the turbulent regions. The heat transfer was found to depend on the side-length and the inclination. Due to the presence of edge-effects the heat transfer coefficient always exceeded that of the vertical plate and that of "the equivalent circular cylinder" in the same condition. General equations representing the experimental results are suggested.
