The measured Nusselt number over the rotating disk is compared with the numerical results. The goal of the present research is to develop a semi empirical correlation in the familiar classical form for a rotating disk at any arbitrary inclination angle over a wide range of rotational Reynolds numbers. The results show that the local Nusselt number does not change dramatically with inclination angle.}, keywords = {Natural convection,Forced Convection,Rotating Disk,Nusselt Number,Inclination Angle,Reynolds Number}, url = {https://www.ije.ir/article_72159.html}, eprint = {https://www.ije.ir/article_72159_7bd6ce04c82d6018f7cd223fc0f7c612.pdf} }
