Nusselt Number Correlation for Vertical Tubes with Inverted Triangular Fins under Natural Convection

Vertical tubes with inverted triangular fins under natural convection are investigated experimentally. The thermal resistances of tubes with inverted triangular fins are measured for various fin numbers, fin heights, and heat inputs. A Nusselt number correlation that best predicts the measured therm...
