Forced convection transfer around spheres at intermediate reynolds numbers Journal Articles

abstract

• AbstractApproximate local and overall Sherwood numbers have been predicted theoretically for forced‐convection transfer around solid and fluid spheres for Reynolds numbers up to 100. The diffusion equation was solved analytically for the case of a thin concentration boundary layer (NPo » 1).The predicted overall Sherwood numbers are in fair agreement with published semi‐empirical correlations.
