A Numerical Study of Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow in a Channel with an Array of Pin Fins in Aligned and Staggered Configurations by Issa, Johnny

“…However, as Reynolds number is increased, the maximum average fin Nusselt number value moved to the second row of fins, a fact that was attributed to the speeding flow field by the first row of fins. The percentage decay of Nusselt number with respect to the number of fin rows N showed a large dependence on Reynolds number, the stacking configuration, and the dimensionless spacing, S*. …”
