This paper presents computations for natural convection within a porous cavity filled with a fluid saturated permeable medium. The finite volume method in a generalized coordinate system is applied. The walls are maintained at constant but different temperatures, while the horizontal walls are kept insulated. Governing equations are written in terms of primitive variables and are recast into a general form. Flow and heat transfer characteristics are investigated for two energy models and distinct solid-to-fluid thermal conductivity ratio.
