The experiment was approximated to conditions of heat exchanging channels of the TOKAMAK thermonuclear reactor. Heating was uniform along the length and, in the general case, non-uniform around the perimeter of the tube cross section. Temperature fields and velocity profiles, distributions of local and average heat-transfer coefficients, and statistic characteristics of turbulent fluctuations of temperature were measured. An appreciable effect of thermal gravity convection (TGC) on temperature fields and heat transfer in a horizontal tube was observed. Results of the effect of longitudinal and transverse magnetic fields differ greatly. %8 2004-06-08
