BUOYANT CONVECTION HEAT TRANSFER IN STEAM INJECTION WELLS

This work investigated buoyant convection heat flow in annular space between tubing-casing in steam injection wells to study the effect of buoyant convection rate on steam temperature and quality. Steam temperature and quality are given for the ditTerent numerical and empirical Nusselt number (Nu...
