Description
Heat transfer data are presented over a Reyuolds Number range of 400 to 8000 for the test fused salt Mixture No. 130 (62 mol % LiF-37 mol % BeFi-1 mol % UF/sub 4/ for a calibrating used salt Mixture No. 30 (50 mol % NaF--46 mol % ZrF/ sub 4/--4 mol % UF/sub 4/) flowing inside round heat exchanger tubes. A prelima- nary equation is developed for predicting shell-side heat transfer coefficients for liquid metal in turbulent, longitudinal flow over a square tube array having a pitch/diameter ratio of 1.165. An experimental value of the specific heat of fused salt Mixture No. 130 is also determined from the test data. (auth)
