Resumo

A simple two-region model has been developed to predict the transient velocity and temperature distribution in a vertical cylinder with sidewall heating. The two regions are a boundary layer region along the vertical walls and a central core region in the middle. The boundary layer behavior is analyzed by the local similarity method which has been modified to conserve energy and to include turbulence and mixed convection effects. The central core region is broken up into a number of vertical control volumes. The results of this model compare favorably with the limited available velocity and temperature data.
