The design, construction, and testing of a heat exchanger for determining heat transfer coefficients for liquids in forced convection normal to banks of staggered tubes

Abstract

"Many studies of heat transmission have been carried out on various kinds of heat exchangers. Film coefficients have been determined and the data correlated by equations. In particular, film coefficients have been obtained for gases in turbulent flow normal to both a single cylinder and banks of staggered tubes. Very little data has been published on liquid film coefficients for flow at right angles, or normal to banks of staggered tubes...It is the purpose of this paper to present the results obtained from tests made on an originally designed heat exchanger built in the laboratory. The exchanger is a non-baffled apparatus for flow of liquid normal to a bank of staggered tubes. An analysis of the data is presented together with a general correlation of the results"--Introduction, page 1, 4.
