Numerical Investigation Of Natural Convection In An Asymmetrically Heated Inclined Channel-chimney Systems. Importance Of The Choice Of Artificial Inlet-outlet Boundary Conditions
Abstract:The present paper is concerned with the results of the numerical investigation of unsteady laminar, natural convection in an asymmetrically heated inclined open channel (i = 0, 45, 60 and 75 • ) with walls at uniform heat flux (q w = 10, 50, 75 and 100W • m −2 ). Two methodological approaches have been adopted to investigate the air flow in this case: 2D and 3D DNS, and four sets of inlet-outlet velocity-pressure boundary conditions have been considered. Significant differences are observed in the flow dynamic… Show more
