The case of the horizontal cylinder is of particular importance in the study of heat transfer by free convection for the following reasons: In the first place, next to the rectangular plate it represents the simplest two-dimensional case; and second, a very wide range of measurements is possible, from the finest electrically heated glow lamp wires to pipes heated by liquids or gases flowing through them.
