Longitudinal laminar flow through isosceles triangular and rectangular rod bundles

Description

The present study investigates the velocity distribution, friction factor, and local wall shear stress distribution of the longitudinal flow through rectangular and isosceles triangular arrays of rod bundles. The flow under consideration is steady, laminar and fully developed and the thermophysical properties of the fluid are constant. The numerical results are found to agree well with the previous analytical solutions and some existing experimental data at certain limiting conditions
