Mass/heat transfer coefficient in the radially rotating circular channels of the rotor of the high-speed heat regenerator

Laminar forced convection heat transfer in radially rotating circular channels of the rotor of the high-speed heat regenerator has been investigated. Mean values of the convective mass/heat transfer coefficient in these channels were measured electrolytically. The measurements were made for Ro=0.1 and Ro=0, in the range of Reynolds number from 250 to 1200. The value of Rossby number and the range of Reynolds number result from the hydraulic characteristics of the regenerator.
