        Abstract
        An experimental investigation was conducted to study convective heat transfer in straight and curved rectangular channels of high aspect ratio that approximate plates of infinite extent. Experiments were performed at steady state in the turbulent flow regime with one wall held at a constant heat fiux and the opposite wall essentially adiabatic. The effect of curvature induced secondary flow on heat transfer on the concave and convex walls was observed by comparing Nusselt numbers for four different configurations at several different Reynolds numbers. Significant heat transfer enhancement was observed on the concave wall. Correlations for Nusselt number as a function of Reynolds number were calculated for the cases studied.

          An experimental study of dropwise condensation on horizontal condenser tubes 

          Manvel, John Talbot Jr. (Monterey, California : Naval Postgraduate School, 1979); NPS 69-79-004
          Three types of drop promoting coatings were applied to the outside of 15.9 mm (5/8 in) outside-diameter condenser tubes to determine their effect on heat transfer performance. The coatings included a new fluoroepoxy, a ...
