Abstract
Stanton number, St, calculations as a function of position, x, are made for turbulent, external boundary layer flow over aerodynamically rough surfaces and also for a fully developed duct flow with rough top and bottom surfaces. This is accomplished with three different forms of generalized Reynolds analogies from the literature and also with a new data correlation developed with the aid of the thermal inner and outer layers. Comparison of these predicted values of St with experimental data, from the literature, is made for several favorable equilibrium, one nonequilibrium, and a zero pressure gradient as well as a duct flow over “real” roughness patterns. Predictions compare reasonably well with the data for some of the generalized Reynolds analogies.
