Abstract:Natural convective fluid flow and heat transfer in a square cavity filled with Copper (Cu) nano particles, mixed in a base fluid (water) has been numerically studied using finite volume method. The Semi Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations (SIMPLE) algorithm has been used to solve the transport equations (momentum and energy). Two constant temperature heat sources of same magnitude are placed on bottom surface and the two vertical surface temperatures are kept cold, while the top surface is maintained… Show more
