Analysis of Laminar Forced Convection of Air for Crossflow Over Two Staggered Flat Tubes

In this work, the numerical simulation of steady heat transfer and fluid flow over a bank of flat tubes in staggered configurations for determining the constant surface temperature is presented. The results are attained using the finite volume method (FVM) and body fitted coordinates (BFC) technique...
