Abstract

Heat transfer rate and pressure drop of laminar fluid flow inside channels are considered in this chapter. Two concepts of developing flow and fully developed flow are described as the key aspects of known results. The governing equations of laminar fluid flow in parallel-plate and circular channels are presented. Based on the different conditions, which include developing and fully developed flow, the governing equations are simplified with some conventional solutions for fluid flow in channels presented.
