...Zehba A.S. Raizah Purpose The purpose of this study is to apply the incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics method for simulating the natural convection flow inside a cavity including cross blades or circular cylinder cylinder. Design/methodology/approach The base fluid is water...

... ) , Nanofluid Entropy generation Heat transfer Cavity Brownian model Variation property Buoyancy-induced convection phenomenon in the enclosures filled with fluid plays an important role in the industry and engineering applications such as solar collectors, nuclear reactor design, cooling...

...Andrzej Frąckowiak; David Spura; Uwe Gampe; Michał Ciałkowski Purpose T-shaped cavities occur by design in many technical applications. An example of such a stator cavity is the side space between the guide vane carriers and the outer casing of a steam turbine. Thermal conditions inside it have...

... in literature. It is assumed that among few, only Brownian motion and thermophoresis affect the slip mechanism to produce a relative velocity between the nanoparticles and the base fluid. The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis in a square cavity by considering...

...K. Janagi; S. Sivasankaran; M. Bhuvaneswari; M. Eswaramurthi Purpose The aim of the present study is to analyze the natural convection flow and heat transfer of cold water around °C in a square porous cavity. The horizontal walls of cavity are adiabatic, and the vertical walls are maintained...
