Abstract

This paper describes the case of combined free and forced convection heat transfer to a thermally developing air flow in a horizontal rectangular duct which has been studied experimentally for laminar internal flow. The heated surfaces were subjected to a constant heat flux while the duct short sides were kept unheated, for three cases lower, upper side heated only and both sides heated with constant heat flux and for five-duct angles of inclination 0° (horizontal). In the experimental study, the heat flux applied to the heated surfaces varied from 40 to 400 W/m2. This provides a modified Grashof number varied from 2.38*106 to 2.8*108 respectively, while the Reynolds number varied from 800 to 2100. Surface temperature, local heat transfer results reveal a significant effect of buoyancy force created by natural convection on the heat transfer process with the buoyancy makes the thermal boundary layer developed early in comparison with pure forced convection.
