I want to create a LaTeX table with three rows which have different row heights.
How can I do this?
The following code
\renewcommand\arraystretch{2.4} \setlength\minrowclearance{2.4pt}
seems make each row has the same height.

I don't know what are the specifications you want but if you want to have the same height in each rows :
1)
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{array}
\begin{document}
\newcolumntype{C}[1]{%
>{\vbox to 5ex\bgroup\vfill\centering}%
p{#1}%
<{\egroup}}
\begin{tabular}{|c | C{3cm} | C{5cm} |}
\hline
Short Text & Short Text & Short Text \tabularnewline \hline
Short Text & Short Text & Loooooooooo oooooooooooong Text \tabularnewline \hline
Short Text & Short Text & Loooooooooooooooooooooong Text \tabularnewline \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
Interesting links about tables : firstly, a document can be found here TableTricks.pdf, interesting also is the wiki page Tables on wiki
2) A new approach perhaps more easy to modify is :
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{array}
\begin{document}
\def\mystrut(#1,#2){\vrule height #1 depth #2 width 0pt}
\newcolumntype{C}[1]{%
>{\mystrut(3ex,2ex)\centering}%
p{#1}%
<{}}
\begin{tabular}{|c | C{3cm} | C{4cm} |}
\hline
Short Text & Short Text & Short Text \tabularnewline \hline
Short Text & Short Text & Loooooooooooooooooong Text \tabularnewline \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
In this solution it's more easy to place the text. You need only to modify heightand depth for the strut.
An alternative solution with tblr environment of tabularray package: since there is default rowsep for a tblr table, you are free to set stretch=0 to remove the strut.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabularray}
\begin{document}
\begin{tblr}{
colspec = {|c|c|c|c|},
hlines,
row{1} = {font=\tiny},
stretch = 0,
}
0 & 1 & 2 & 3 \\
0 & 4.94066e-323 & 22 & 9.78381e+199 \\
\end{tblr}
\end{document}

Try this:
So you can specify the height of a row with the optional argument
