Natural Convection in a Tilted Rectangular Enclosure with a Single Discrete Heater
The effect of inclination angle on the steady laminar free convection in a rectangular enclosure (aspect ratio = 5), which is discretely heated by an isoflux flush mounted small heater (L / H = 0.125) is studied numerically. The local and average Nusselt numbers are compared at inclination angles from 0 (bottom heating) to 180o (top heating), for modified Rayleigh numbers 102 ≤ Ra* ≤ 106. The t...
متن کاملMixed convection study in a ventilated square cavity using nanofluids
This work indicates a numerical study on the laminar heat transfer mixed convection in a square cavity with two openings (an inlet and an outlet) on vertical walls through which nanofluid flows. Two flow directions are examined: i) ascending flow which enters the bottom opening and exits the upper opening; ii) descending flow which enters the upper opening and exits the bottom opening. The asce...
متن کاملNumerical Study of Natural Convection in a Square Enclosure Filled by Nanofluid with a Baffle in the Presence of Magnetic Field
Natural convection heat transfer in a square enclosure with a horizontal baffle at the centerline of the left wall containing Al2O3-water in the presence of a magnetic field is investigated numerically. The top and bottom horizontal walls are adiabatic. The left wall and the baffle are maintained in constant temperature Th and the right wall is maintained in...
متن کاملNatural Convection in a Differentially Heated Square Enclosure with a Solid Polygon
The aim of the present numerical study is to analyze the conjugate natural convection heat transfer in a differentially heated square enclosure containing a conductive polygon object. The left wall is heated and the right wall is cooled, while the horizontal walls are kept adiabatic. The COMSOL Multiphysics software is applied to solve the dimensionless governing equations. The governing parame...
متن کاملCFD analysis of natural convection heat transfer in a square cavity with partitions utilizing Al2O3 nanofluid
In the present study, natural convective heat transfer in a partitioned square cavity utilizing nanofluids is studied. The vertical left and right walls are considered as the hot and cold walls, respectively and the partitions assumed to be adiabatic. The nanofluid used in this study is Al2O3 with the volume fraction of 20%. It is assumed that nanofluid is a single phase f...
