Wake and heat transfer characteristics around a heated circular cylinder were studied numerically in this paper. Heat transfer from a heated cylinder to the freestream flow was in mixed convection regime, with the free convection-bouyancy driven flow in opposite direction to the forced convection-main flow. Numerical simulations were performed for three Reynolds numbers of 100, 135 and 200, with the Richardson (Ri = Gr/Re2) numbers varied from 0 to 1. Results showed that buoyancy force significantly altered wake formation behind the heated cylinder, further resulted in increasing drag and decreasing Nusselt number.
