Convective Heat Transfer
Tuncer Cebeci

Table 11.9 Instructions for calculating momentum and heat transfer in laminar and turbulent flows with computer programs discussed in Section 11.9

  1. Compile HSPM panel code (panel.for) and run PC executable file (panel.exe)  with input data n0012-183.txt and generate the output file panelOut.txt
  2. Compile pinterface.for and execute pinterface.exe for the following input. Change the file name thwaitesInp.txt into thwaitesIn1.txt
    1. Enter flow type
          0    laminar flow only
          1    laminar and turbulent flow
          2    turbulent flow only
      >1
      Flow parameters
      Enter Reference length BIGL
      >3
      Enter reference velocity
      >160
      Enter kinematic viscosity CNU = (1.6e-4 for example)
      >1.6e-4
      Identitfy whether the geometry and velocity data are provided by
              0    panel method
              1    input [x(i), s(i), ue(i)] directly
      >0
      Enter input file name (its format must be the same as the HSPM output file (eg. panelOut.txt)
      >panelOut.txt
      Choose Upper or Lower Surface
              0    upper_surface
              1    lower_surface
      >0
  3. Compile thwaites.for and execute thwaites.exe with input file thwaitesIn1.txt and save the output into file thwaitesOu1.txt
  4. Compile Smith-Spalding method smith_spalding.for and execute smith_spalding.exe with input file thwaitesIn1.txt and save the output into file smith_spaldOut.txt
  5. Compile Michel.for (Michel's method) and execute Michel.exe to find the transition location. According to Michel's method for test case 1, transition occurs at NX = 53 at XCTR=0.10866, .
  6. Compile head.for (Head's method) and execute head.exe to finish the turbulent flow calculations with input file headInp.txt and save the results into headOu1.txt
  7. Change headInp.txt  and add Pr, TW, TE and Cf in it.  Then compile ambrok.for and execute ambrok.exe to finish the turbulent flow calculations with input file headInp.txt and save the results into ambrokOut.txt
