Description

In this paper, results of an experimental investigation of mixed convection in laminar air flow across a tungsten wire are presented. Results are correlated by the 3-D surface equation of heat transfer, and compared with traditional equations for mixed convection which have been suggested by several investigators. Experimental results are given for Reynolds numbers in the range of 0.8 ≤ Re ≤ 17.5, Grashof numbers in the range of 1.5 · 10-3 ≤ Gr ≤ 25 and buoyancy parameter in the range of 6 · 10-5 ≤ Gr/Re2 ≤ 11.5
