This book is concerned with relationships governing high-rate, enhanced turbulent heat transfer in gas-cooled channels. The book presents results of detailed measurements of fluid-dynamic and thermal parameters on smooth and rough heat-emitting cylinders in axial flow, and heat-transfer and hydraulic-drag coefficients in rough annular and helical channels and in bundles of twisted tubes in axial flow. All the results are correlated in general form, which is suitable for practical application over a wide range of operating and geometric parameters.
