Abstract

DELMASTRO, D.F.; CHASSEUR, A.F.  and  GARCIA, J.C.. Fully developed laminar convection whit variable thermophysical properties between two heated vertical parallel plates. Lat. Am. appl. res. [online]. 2009, vol.39, n.1, pp.85-90. ISSN 0327-0793.

In this work, the influence on the flow and heat transfer of the density, viscosity and thermal conductivity temperature dependence was analyzed. A perturbation analysis was applied to a vertical fully developed laminar stationary flow between two heated parallel flat plates. For small values of the dimensionless numbers associated with the buoyancy, viscosity and thermal conductivity changes effects, the influence of the different properties temperature dependence was obtained. Application examples to water and air flows are also presented.

Keywords : Laminar Flows; Heat Transfer; Temperature-Dependent Properties.
