Semi-log plot of Nu/Ra0.29 as functions of Ra. 0.5d (d/λθ≈0.5) and 1d (d/λθ≈1) are indicated by blue solid triangle and red solid circles, respectively. nogb (Nu/Ra0.29 of system without partitions) are indicated by black solid rectangle. The dash lines represent the best power-law fits of corresponding cases.
