Numerical study on combined convection heat transfer flow problem in a porous corrugated enclosure

“…(A) Material grids (red lines), (B) schematic view of physical domain, (C–G) five different cases of heating (red lines) of the corrugated bottom Bist et al 23 [Color figure can be viewed at wileyonlinelibrary.com]…”

“…There are various numerical and experimental studies available in the literature related to circular and square cylinders, trapezoidal, triangular, (H, I, U, V, T, C)‐shaped geometries, modified corrugated channels, different shapes of heat source, and discrete heat sources located on the different boundaries walls of the modified geometries, and so forth, to study the forced, natural and mixed convection heat transfer flow phenomena 20–40 . To the best of our knowledge, no earlier study has been carried out in the literature on the combined convection in a porous‐corrugated enclosure by using a transformation‐free higher order compact scheme on uniform grid points.…”

MHD natural convection in a corrugated enclosure with discrete isothermal heating

“…There are many experimental and numerical research studies available in the literature related to T-, U-, V-, H-, I-, L-shaped geometries, heated circular and square cylinders, different shaped grooved channels, different shaped heat strips, and discrete heat sources placed on the different walls of the considered geometry, to study the forced, mixed, and natural convective heat transfer flow phenomena. [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] To the best of our knowledge, no earlier research work has been carried out in the literature on the MHD natural convective heat transfer in a corrugated enclosure by using a higher order compact scheme on uniform grids. It is also important to understand the three-dimensional (3D) heat transfer flow phenomenon inside the corrugated modified geometries.…”

Mixed Convection in a Lid‐Driven Cavity with Triangular Corrugations and Built‐in Triangular Block

“…Sunden and Trollheden [38] elucidated periodic laminar flow and thermal characteristics within twodimensional corrugated channels. Bisht et al [39] analyzed fluid flow within a lid-driven enclosure subjected to a corrugated bottom wall. Hilo et al [40] examined the effect of corrugated wall associated with backward-facing step channel for hydrodynamic and thermal characteristics.…”
