Mixed convection of Cu-Water nanofluid is studied numerically in a shallow inclined enclosure by applying lattice Boltzmann method. The D2Q9 lattice and internal energy distribution function based on the BGK collision operator are used in order to develop the thermal flow field. The enclosure's hot lid has the constant velocity of U0 while its cold lower wall has no motion. Moreover, sidewalls ...

In this study the effect of magnetic Reynolds number variation on magnetic distribution of natural convection heat transfer in an enclosure is numerically investigated. The geometry is a two dimensional enclosure which the left wall is hot, the right wall is cold and the top and bottom walls are adiabatic. Fluid is molten sodium with Pr=0.01 and natural convection heat transfer for Rayleigh num...

The present study is the 3-D simulation of cooling control electronic component, by natural convection and mixed in a cubical enclosure, filled with air. heating square portion similar to integrated device releasing constant flux placed on right vertical wall enclosure. same has, its upper part, an extractor, while rest considered adiabatic. Its opposite has opening maintained at cold temperatu...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of magnetic field on the fluid flow and natural convection of CuO-water nanofluids with variable properties in an inclined square enclosure. The horizontal walls of cavity are insulated, the left sidewall assumed as hot wall and the right sidewall assumed as cold wall. Effects of Rayleigh numbers 103, 104, 105</su...

Natural convection heat transfer has many applications in different fields of industry; such as cooling industries, electronic transformer devices and ventilation equipment; due to simple process, economic advantage, low noise and renewed retrieval. Recently, heat transfer of nanofluids have been considered because of higher thermal conductivity coefficient compared with those of ordinary fluid...
