Abstract

Average heat transfer coefficients during forced convection air flow over reversed rectangular flat plate have been experimentally determined. The experiments are carried out for a constant surface temperature and covered reverse les from 0 to 60 deg, and Reyonolds numbers from 7.5 x 104 to 22.5 x 104. The results show that the average heat transfer coefficient is a function of Reyonlds number and the reveres angles. Correlation equation for various angles of reverse is suggested.
