Abstract

A forced convection heat transfer in ducts (circular, triangular, rectangular) cross sections and (1m) length with hydraulic diameter (0.1m) filled with porous media (glass spheres 12 mm diameter) is investigated experimentally at constant heat flux from the wall (1070W/m²) with Reynolds number range of (12461-2500). Comparison was made between three ducts for local temperature distribution and local Nusselt number). The experimental results showed the effect of Reynolds number and cross section on the temperature profile and local Nusselt number,also empirical correlations for average Nusselt number and Peclet number were obtained for three ducts.
