“…Additionally, different-shaped enclosures (circle, square, triangle, etc.) may be employed to regulate or split the fluid flow [6]. The lid driven cavity has been the focus of several investigations in the literature because of its natural allure as well as its ability to assess the accuracy and efficacy of newly created numerical methods.…”

Incompressible fluid flow research uses lid-driven cavity as a benchmark issue to measure computer simulation accuracy. Flow within a hollow includes recirculation, turbulence, eddies, instability, impingement, flow separation, attachment with walls (moving and stationary), fluid entrapment in the recirculation area, and other fluid flow phenomena. In this article, forced convection in a lid-driven square cavity with a sliding top wall and hemispherical obstruction is mathematically illustrated. This chamber filled with Newtonian fluid was exposed to a moving wall (5, 10, 15, and 20 m/s), as selected in the literature. The finite volume technique using the SIMPLER algorithm is used to solve the complete governing equations with the Boussinesq approximation, whereas the analytical approach uses the parallel flow assumption. The moving wall disrupts the cavity's flow field, according to the results. Also, moving wall produces great mixing between the flow field below it and the hollow. The static pressure fluctuates from 0.6 m to 1 m (contact with the moving wall). Also, dynamic pressure increases linearly until 0.7 m, then decreases linearly until 1 (contact with the moving wall). In addition, the inner surface's velocity varies randomly along the location while the others remain constant.

This work implements the emerging computational technique namely the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) to a fluid flow problem of single sided lid-driven cavities with various shapes of obstacles placed in it. The numerical methodology employs the Single-Relaxation-Time (SRT) model applicable to low Mach number hydrodynamic problem for incompressible flow regime. Three geometrical shapes of the obstacles considered are circular, square, and elliptic. Cavity with obstacles exhibited remarkable circulation zones and structures in contrast to the classical lid driven cavity. The flow mechanics and the vortex dynamics are studied for various values of Reynolds Number (Re = 100, 400, and 1000). Due to the introduction of the obstacles, a strong induced vortex forms close to the obstacles and its size changes interestingly with the variation of Reynolds number, which is captured by LBM. Further the study is extended to examine the vortex phenomena induced by changing the position of the obstacles within the cavity. It is observed that the flow structures change dramatically with little change in the position of obstacle inside the cavity which helps to identify position with enhanced mixing characteristics.

“…e fluid flow parameters and the behavior of the fluid under the influence of magnetic field on the surface of the circular cylinder have been studied [24] with the ratios of the rectangular channel to the diameter of the circle between 1.6 and 4 and the Stuart number less than 5. ey deducted that the recirculation region was seen at the end of the cylinder and suggested a critical Stuart number to keep the drag on the surface of the cylinder lower. e behavior of the velocity field on the circular obstacle fixed in the cavity has been determined by [25] with the implementation of the multigrid technique of the finite volume method. A recirculation appeared at the back of the cylinder, and the length of that recirculation is increased with the increase in flow velocity.…”

Nonisothermal flow through the rectangular channel on a circular surface under the influence of a screen embedded at the middle of a channel at angles θ is considered. Simulations are carried out via COMSOL Multiphysics 5.4 which implements the finite element method with an emerging technique of the least square procedure of Galerkin’s method. Air as working fluid depends upon the Reynolds number with initial temperature allowed to enter from the inlet of the channel. The nonisothermal flow has been checked with the help of parameters such as Reynolds number, angle of the screen, and variations in resistance coefficient. The consequence and the pattern of the velocity field, pressure, temperature, heat transfer coefficient, and local Nusselt number are described on the front surface of the circular obstacle. The rise in the temperature and the flow rate on the surface of the obstacle has been determined against increasing Reynolds number. Results show that the velocity magnitudes are decreasing down the surface and the pressure is increasing down the surface of the obstacle. The pressure on the surface of the circular obstacle was found to be the function of the y-axis and does not show any impact due to the change of the resistance coefficient. Also, it was indicated that the temperature on the front circular surface does not depend upon the orientation of the screen and resistance factor. The heat transfer coefficient is decreasing which indicates that the conduction process is dominating over the convection process.
