Of the two indices of N u and Gr, the first refers to the linear dimen-
sion which is used (b = distance between the piffles) arid the second
to the value of T used in determining the values of the quantities
depending on temperature, •, ), and ~ (the index w indicates t h a t the
wall temperature is used).
We will now calculate the heat dissipation of the inner surface of
tubes, and as a first example we consider a vertical tube with circu-
lar cross-section. In order to derive a formulafor the heat dissipation
of the inner surface of the tube, we first consider a tube of which the
length is large compared with the diameter. In this case the heat
dissipation m a y be calculated in the same way as t h a t in which the
heat dissipation of parallel plates was derived in I for the case where
the distance b between the plates was small compared with the
height h. The inner diameter of the tube 2R being small compared
with the height h, the flowing medium will over the whole cross-
section attain the same temperature as the tube wall. The heat Q
dissipated per sec. equals therefore
Q = M C , 0~, (3)
where M is the mass of the medium flowing through per sec. and 0w
the temperature difference between the tube wall and the medium at
the moment of flowing in. As in this case the lifting force is constant
over the whole cross-section, the flow in the tube as long as it is
laminar is the well known P o i s s e u i 11 e flow. Hence :

*) By English physicists tile hydraulic mean depth F/U is often used. We prefer to u~e
2F/U, since for the circular cross-section this equals the radius R and for the infinitely
long parallel plates it equals the distance h between the plates.

for b/a -~ 1 (square cross-section) + Re : 14.9.25. Apart from the
circular and four rectangular cross-sections (b/a = 0, x/5, 1/2 and 1)
we also carried out measurements on tubes with equilateral triangu-
lar cross-sections. The value of ~bRe for this cross-section is derived
in the next section.
