An experimental investigation was made of the measurement of heat-transfer coefficients for a single row of three circular cylinders in cross flow, using a water tunnel. Average and local Nusselt numbers for the cylinders, placed at cylinder spacings from 2d to 5d, were measured precisely in the Reynolds number range from 70 to 8 [times] 10[sup 3]. Flow visualization was also conducted to examine the flow patterns around the cylinders. From the results obtained, it was found that the heat-transfer characteristics of cylinders, located downstream of the first cylinder, varied moderately with the change in flow pattern upstream.
