Natural convection from a slightly inclined circular cylinders immersed in quiescent cold pure water was studied experimentally. The experiment was carried out for circular cylinders with uniform heat flux ranging from $100W/m^{2} to 800 W/m^{2}$ and inclined angle ranging from horizontal $({\phi}=0^{\circ}) to 15^{\circ}$. The flow fields around cylinder were visualized and heat transfer characteristics investigated by measuring the surface temperatures for each case. As the results, it is shown that flow patterns are changed consecutively through the sequence of steady state downflow, unsteady state flow and steady state upflow with increasing heat flux. At the same inclined angle, as heat flux increases, the average Nusselt number decreases and then increases. At the same heat flux, as inclined angle increases, the average Nusselt number decreases.

A new empirical correlation was developed to identify the effect of an inclination angle on pool boiling heat transfer coefficient of a tube submerged in the saturated water at atmospheric pressure. Through the experiments and the survey of published results 431 data points were obtained and the nonlinear least square method was used as a regression technique. The heat flux of the tube($0{\sim}120kW/m^2$), inclination angle($0^{\circ}{\sim}90^{\circ}$), and the length divided by the diameter of a tube(18~42.52) were selected as major parameters. The newly developed correlation well predicts the experimental data within ${\pm}18%$, with some exceptions.

The new blind design of sunlighting has been suggested in this study. The material in this blind becomes transparent but the blind has the parabolic edge section having the perpendicular line on a side. The material of this blind is PolyMethly MethAcrylate(PMMA). In this parabolic edge section, the front side of the blind is designed perpendicular to the ground. But the back side is a little tilted to the front side. The rays of reflected sun at the front side can be easily reflected totally by the back side. If the inclination angle in this parabolic edge section at the back side is designed with $15^{\circ}$, it can transmit the rays of sun when the height of the sun is lower than $45^{\circ}$. But it can reflect the rays of sun when the height of the sun is upper than $45^{\circ}$. The suggested design of blind can be applied to the existing blind installation. Although the material in this blind becomes transparent, the rays of sun can be reflected totally at midday. There is also prospect outside of the blind because the material becomes transparent. Several inclination angles in the suggested design have been simulated for the various height of sun. Total reflections have been occurred by the suggested blind design at midday and it can be useful to shut out the sunlight.
