Figure 13.
Line plot showing the variation of the Nusselt number (Nu) along the dimensionless axial coordinate (x*) for three configurations: 8 finned modules (red dashed line with stars), 4 finned modules (blue dashed line with stars), and a non-finned annulus (black dashed line with stars).The vertical axis represents N subscript u values, ranging from approximately ten to forty-five. The horizontal axis represents x star values, ranging from zero point two to one, with increments of zero point two. Three distinct curves are shown on the graph: a dashed red line represents eight modules, a dashed blue line represents four modules, and a dashed black line represents a non-finned annulus. Each curve is marked with a corresponding symbol, and a legend within the graph identifies the meaning of each line style and symbol. All three curves show a general decrease in N subscript u as x star increases, with variations in trend across the three configurations.
