Velocity and temperature distributions for mercury in turbulent flow

Velocity and temperature profiles in mercury are reported for vertical flow in a pipe at Reynolds numbers of approximately 3.3 x 10⁴ and 5.4 x 10⁴ with variation in heat flux. At a Reynolds number ≈ 3.3 x 10⁴ profiles are reported for thermal calming lengths of approximately 17, 36, 61 and 84. The v...
