Publisher's Synopsis
In this authoritative proceedings, over 220 research, keynote, and invited papers present the results of experimental investigations conducted throughout the world over the past five years. Keynote papers in Experimental Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics, and Thermodynamics 1988 focus on the latest advances in experimental techniques used in thermal and fluid science. Using the International System of Units (SI) throughout, the volume includes contributed research papers that feature experimental methods, phenomenological and analytical/numerical modeling, and analysis of fundamentals and applications. Invited papers review fundamentals and applications in specific areas including: Thermal Radiation and Insulation Systems; Heat Transfer Augmentation; Magnetohydrodynamics; Jet Expansion Measurements in Two-Phase Flow Systems, Forced Convection in High-Temperature Systems; Internal and External Laminar Flows; Gas-Solid and Liquid-Solid Two-Phase Flows; and Axisymmetric and Rotating Flows.
