Aiming to improve the accuracy of the thermal hydraulic calculations necessary for the operational reliability of large power units, two Lithuanian scientists elaborate on experimental investigations and predictive analysis; and heat transfer in vertical tubes with aiding flows, and in curved channels; and heat transfer and friction factor in coils. Appends experimental data for heat transfer in tubes and coils under various conditions, and a table on shear stresses in coils.

Broad coverage of buoyancy effects on convective heat transfer in duct flows. Provides an immense quantity of experimental data deriving from active and excellent research in the USSR. Acidic paper. Annotation copyright Book News Inc. Portland, Or.
