Natural convection in inclined rectangular cavities
Abstract
A high-order accurate method is used to solve the Navier Stokes equations coupled with an energy equation describing natural convection in an inclined rectangular cavity. The method allows determination of the flow pattern and heat transfer at a wall even when an aspect ratio is large enough to have a multicellur flow.
