An Empirical Correlation for EHD Enhanced Natural Convection Heat Transfer Along a Plate Surface
ABSTRACT
The experiment of ether natural convection heat transfer, along a horizontal plate brass, was performed with an applied uniform electric field. A new empirical correlation was presented for predicating the extent of EHD enhancement of natural convection from heated horizontal plate. This correlation is applicable over a range of electric Rayleigh Numbers from 3 × 104 to 4 × 107 and heat fluxes from 0.5 kW/m2 to 3.5 kW/m2.The error between the experimental data and calculated results is less than 20%. This correlation is suitable only for the liquid ether in some range of heat fluxes.
