This article presents the hydrodynamic and thermal characteristics of transfers by forced, mixed and natural convection in a room ventilated by air displacement. The main objective is to study the effect of a porous partition on the heat transfer and therefore the thermal comfort in the room. The fluid flow future in the cavity and the heat transfer rate on the active wall have been analyzed for different permeabilities: 10−6 ≤ Da ≤ 10. The other control parameters are obviously, the Rayleigh number and the Reynolds number varied in the rows: 10 ≤ Ra ≤ 106 and 50 ≤ Re ≤ 500 respectively. The transfer equations write were solved by the Lattice Boltzmann Multiple Relaxation Time method. For flow in porous media an additional term is added in the standard LB equations, to consider the effect of the porous media, based on the generalized model, the Brinkman-Forchheimer-extended Darcy model. The most important conclusion is that the Darcian regime start for small Darcy number Da < 10−4. Spatial competition between natural convection cell and forced convection movement is observed as Ra and Re rise. The effect of Darcy number values and the height of the porous layer is barely visible with a maximum deviation less than 7% over the ranges considered. Note that the natural convection regime is never reached for low Reynolds numbers. For this Re values the cooperating natural convection only improves transfers by around 10% while, for the other Reynolds numbers the improvement in transfers due to natural and forced convections cooperation is more significant.

This work presents an experimental study of the effect of a magnetic field on laminar forced convection of a ferrofluid flowing in a tube filled with permeable material. The walls of the tube are subjected to a uniform heat flux and the permeable bed consists of uniform spheres of 3-mm diameter. The ferrofluid synthesis is based on reacting iron (II) and iron (III) in an aqueous ammonia solution to form magnetite, Fe3O4. The magnetite is mixed with aqueous tetra methyl ammonium hydroxide, (CH3)4NOH, solution. The dependency of the pressure drop on the volume fraction, and comparison of the pressure drop and the temperature distribution of the tube wall is studied. Also comparison of the wall temperature distribution, convection heat transfer coefficient and the Nusselt numbers of ferrofluids with different volume fractions is investigated for various Reynolds numbers (147 < Re < 205 ). It is observed that the heat transfer is enhanced by using a porous media, increasing the volume fraction had a similar effect. The pressure coefficient decreases for higher Reynolds number. The effect of magnetic field in four strategies, named modes, on ferrofluid flow through the porous media is presented.

A regularized lattice Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook model for flow and heat transfer in porous media at the representative element volume scale is presented. In the model, the regularization process is extended to the existing Darcy–Forchheimer-based lattice Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook scheme. Numerical results show good agreement between the present model and the previous ones. Also, the present model shows better numerical stability than its lattice Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook counterpart.

AbstractThe effect of porous material position on the heat transfer inside a pipe working in a turbulent regime is studied here to obtain a detailed understanding of the heat transfer enchantment mechanisms in different porous substrate positions. To this end, an in-house Fortran code is developed to solve the governing equations using the finite volume method and SIMPLE algorithm. Turbulent flow in porous media is modeled using a modified version of k–ε model. The flow field and heat transfer inside the partially filled pipe are investigated for the two cases of central and boundary configurations. The porous and flow characteristics including Reynolds number, Darcy number, the conductivity ratios of solid to fluid and the thickness of inserted porous layer are varied and the heat transfer performance is studied in different cases. It is observed that two entirely different phenomena enhance the heat transfer in central and boundary configurations. While the channeling of fluid between the porous media and the pipe wall highly affects the heat transfer performance in the former, the thermal conductivity of porous media plays a highly critical role in the latter configuration. It is shown that, for the same filling ratio, inserting the porous layer at the core of the pipe is more effective than placing it at the wall. Investigating porous materials with different solid conductivities revealed that covering the pipe wall with a porous material is justified only for solid matrixes with high thermal conductivities.
