In the present experimental study, the influence of Opening ratio on the chamber temperature in case of vented triangular enclosure with hot base plate has been undertaken. Due to more flow passage, the average air temperature in the enclosure decreases by 12% for OR of 0.25 and 13% for OR of 0.5 compared to OR of 0.125. Similar trend is observed for Rayleigh number with a rise of 73% in OR 0.5 compared to OR of 0.125. Further, the influence of radiation heat transfer in the natural convection based enclosure is also studied. This kind of investigation is useful in the design and analysis of electronic cooling systems.

In this paper, a numerical simulation was conducted to investigate the steady laminar natural convective heat transfer and surface radiation from a heated rectangular body in a triangular enclosure. The coupled equations of Navier-stockes and energy are both solved using the finite volume method. The velocity-pressure coupling is insured by the SIMPLER algorithm. The fluid used in this study is a dry air of Prandtl numberPr= 0.71.In such way that, the radiative exchanges are made only through solid walls and which are assumed to be gray and diffuse. The physical parameters characterizing the problem and influencing heat transfer are Rayleigh numberRa, aspect ratioA, heighthand widthwof the body. The results are presented in terms of isotherms, streamlines and average Nusselt number.
