The effect of different inlet geometries on laminar air flow combined convection heat transfer inside a horizontal circular pipe has been experimentally investigated for Reynolds number range of 400-1600, and the Grashof number range from 3.12 � 105 to 1.72 � 106. The experimental setup consists of...
