摘要
This paper investigates basic analytical expressions for Nusselt number with the effect of viscous dissipation on the heat transfer between infinite fixed parallel plates, where the focus is on hydro-dynamically and thermally fully developed flow of a Newtonian fluid with constant properties, neglecting the axial heat conduction. Thermal boundary conditions considered are: both the plates kept at different constant heat fluxes, both the plates kept at equal constant heat fluxes, and one plate insulated. From the analysis, new expressions for Nusselt numbers have been found, as a function of various definitions of the Brinkman number. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
