Abstract

This chapter on convective heat and mass transfer starts out from Prandtl’s original chapter Heat Transfer in Flowing Liquids. We will treat free convection flows, caused by the density changes in the fluid due to temperature and concentration gradients. These cause a lift in the gravitational field, which in turn causes convection flows. Examples of free convection flows at heated cylinders and plates were shown in the introductory chapter in Figure 1.6. The Rayleigh–Benard convection of Figure 1.5 and diffusion convection are also examples of free convection flows.
