Authors:
- Deals with the practically important case of natural convection from narrow plates
- Reviews the studies that are the basis for the prediction of natural convection from narrow plates and assesses the accuracy of these prediction methods
- Discusses the effect of plate inclination on the natural convective heat transfer from narrow plates
- Discusses the effect of conditions at the edge of the plate on the natural convective heat transfer from narrow plates
- Discusses natural convective heat transfer from two adjacent narrow plates, a situation that can arise in some practical devices
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
