Abstract Combined radiation and natural convection in a square cavity with emitting and absorbing participating medium is studied numerically. The equation of radiation transfer is analyzed by the P-1 approximation. The momentum and energy balance equations are calculated using spectral methods. The presence of a radiation source increases the bulk temperature of the fluid, and has a significant influence on the flow pattern and temperature distribution. In this work, the flow is initially stationary, and is simulated from transition to chaos by varying with Rayleigh numbers of 104, 105, 106, 107, and 108. The conduction-radiation parameter ranges from 100 to 0.1, and optical thickness ranges from 10 to 0.01. Comparisons are made with some existing results. The influence of the conduction-radiation parameter, Rayleigh numbers and optical thickness on flow instabilities and bifurcations is discussed.

In this paper, the flow problem of constant velocity of a square cavity whose lid is solved and obtained a numerical solution on 2 grid levels, having 32x32 and 64x64 cells. Reynolds number of 1x102 , 1x103 was selected for laminar flow and 8x103 was selected for turbulent flow. The problem is identified in NavierStokes equations. The finite volume discretization is based on the numerical model. The simulated results are in valid agreement with those that are available in the given report. The numerical solution of these works are accurately obtained for this problem.

Analysis of lid driven square cavity flow of air with three different ranges of Ri and Re are analyzed using numerically. Adiabatic temperature is maintained at horizontal walls and isothermal temperature is established at the vertical walls in which the top wall is assumed to slide with a uniform speed. Finite volume method techniques have used to solve non dimensional governing equations. To visualize the flow and thermal characteristics, the control parameters, the Richardson number (Ri) and Reynolds number (Re) and in the range of 0.001 ≤ Ri ≤ 10 and 100 ≤ Re ≤ 400 are used for streamlines and isotherms.

In this paper we present the results of the 3-D simulations of the power law model fluid flow in rectangular cavity. FLOW-3D commercial, software (Flow-Simulations, Inc.) has been used to predict flow velocity distributions and pressure losses when non-Newtonian fluid flows through the square cavity.
