Abstract

Correlating equations for heat transfer by natural convection from horizontal cylinders to a cylindrical enclosure are obtained using a conduction boundary-layer model. The correlation is valid for heat transfer by conduction, laminar flow and turbulent flow. The results approach the correlation for heat transfer from a free horizontal cylinder as the outer cylinder diameter becomes infinite and for quasi-steady heat transfer to fluid within a horizontal cylinder as the inner cylinder diameter approaches zero. Horizontal concentric, eccentric and arrays of cylinders within the outer cylinder are geometries included in the correlation.
