Effect Of Surface

The conjugate natural convection heat transfer with and without the interaction of the surface radiation in a square enclosure was carried out by numerical simulation. The vertical walls of the square enclosure were heated with different temperatures, and the others were adiabatic. A circular tube was inserted into the square enclosure. It was observed that varied location of the tube center can lead to different motion and heat transfer intensities. In addition, surface radiation reduces the convective heat transfer in the square enclosure compared to the pure natural convection case and enhances the overall heat transfer performance.

Prandtl Numbers

Numerical investigations are presented for three-dimensional natural convection at low Prandtl numbers (Pr) from 0 to 0.027 in rectangular enclosures with differentially heated vertical walls. Computations are carried out for the enclosures with aspect ratios (length/height) 2 and 4, and width ratios (width/height) ranging from 0.5 to 4.2. Dependence of the onset of oscillation on the Prandtl number, the aspect ratio, and the width ratio is investigated. Furthermore, oscillatory, three-dimensional flow structure is clarified. The structure is characterized by some longitudinal vortices (rolls) as well as cellular pattern.
