Free Convection Heat Transfer to Horizontal Cylinders From an Ordinary Fluid Containing a Volume Heat Source (open access)

Free Convection Heat Transfer to Horizontal Cylinders From an Ordinary Fluid Containing a Volume Heat Source

Outside heat transfer coefficients for several horizontal tubes cooling an ordinary fluid containing a volume heat source by free convection were obtained experimentally. Water was used as the coolant, and a very dilute solution of HC1 was the bulk fluid. The basic equipment included a Lucite test cell which contained the bulk fluid, Cu screen grids through which an alternating current was passed to generate a volume heat source in the bulk and several horizontal 1/4 in. O.D. stainless steel tubes through which the coolant was pumped. Experiments were conducted using a single-tube, four-tube, and five-tube geometry. The heat transfer coefficients obtained were considered accurate within 8%. With single-tube cooling, the heat transfer coefficients were correlated by Nu = 0.49 (Gr Pr)/sup 1/4/. With four cooling tubes, the data were correlated by Nu = 0.59 (Gr Pr)/sup 1/4/, while with five cooling tubes the value of the coefficients in the correlation equation was Nu = 0.64 (Gr Pr)/sup 1/4/.

Harmony in the Symphonies of Ralph Vaughan Williams (open access)

Harmony in the Symphonies of Ralph Vaughan Williams

The harmony of Vaughan Williams defies classification in terms of traditional harmony alone, making use as it does at times, of structures of superposed fourths, so-called "added-note" chords, and random sonorities, as will appear. Therefore, the chords will be placed into two principal categories of usage, traditional and non-traditional.
