✦ Synopsis

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the internal surface area basis, a key issue of modeling fouling in enhanced heat transfer tubes, and to correct an error in the authorÕs previous paper, Li and Webb [Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer 45 (2002) 1685]. A fouling factor can be defined based on one of the two area bases, nominal internal surface area and total internal surface area. The error was originated from incorrect definition of internal surface area basis.

This paper deals with the flow and heat transfer of superfluid helium in a vertical Gorter-Mellink duct. Numerical simulation is performed using basic equations of the two-fluid model, with the dissipation due to the Gorter-Mellink two-fluid mutual friction added to the transport equation of entropy
