Introduction

We discussed laminar flow in channels in Chapter 6, and many of the features of turbulent flow are similar. We will begin this subject with the criteria for fully developed velocity and temperature profiles, and will focus most of our attention on analyzing fully developed flows. As in Chapter 6, our analysis is limited to general boundary conditions: (i) uniform surface temperature, and (ii) uniform surface heat flux.
