A numerical study has been conducted for natural convection heat transfer for air around two horizontal heated cylinders placed inside a rectangular enclosure cooled from the side. Three cylinder spacings were investigated. The local and overall Nusselt numbers were determined over the range of Rayleigh numbers from 104 to 106. It is found that the thermal performance of the unit is strongly influenced by the Rayleigh number and, to a lesser extent, by the cylinder spacing. A correlation is suggested for the overall Nusselt number.
