Two Coupled Forced‐Convection Boundary Layers of Counter‐Flow

In this study, the conjugate heat transfer problem of two forced‐convection boundary layers of counter‐laminar flow on plate sides is analyzed by employing the integral method. The analysis is conducted in a dimensionless way to generalize the solution. The dimensionless parameters governing the thermal coupling between the two convection layers are revealed from the analysis. These parameters give a measure of the relative importance of interactive heat transfer modes. Mean Nusselt number results are obtained for a wide range of the governing parameters.
