Abstract:Entropy generation for the natural convection phenomena is studied for different geometrical cavities that have identical boundary conditions and unit area. The key characteristic parameter in this study was the Grashof number. The effect of Grashof number on Nusselt number and entropy generation has been studied using finite element method. The developed models in this study were validated against published work in the literature and results were found to be in close agreement. Entropy generation was found to… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
