Abstract:

A study of convective heat, mass and momentum transfer between laminar parallel flow of air and water was undertaken. Analytical solutions of the laminar boundary layer equations for both the gaseous and the liquid phases were obtained by an analog computer. Profiles of velocity, temperature and concentration as well as their gradients were obtained from these solutions. A range of air and water velocities and temperatures normally encountered by natural water bodies was considered.
