The turbulence natural convection boundary layer inside a infinite vertical channel with differentially heated walls is analyzed based on a similarity solution methodology. The differences between mean temperature and velocity profiles in a boundary layer along a vertical flat plate and in a channel flow, make it necessary to introduce new sets of scaling parameters. In the limit as H* → ∞, two distinctive parts are considered: an outer region which dominates the core of the flow and inner constant heat flux region close to the walls. The proper inner scaling velocity is showed to be determined by the outer parameters due to momentum integral. The theory is contrasted with the one suggested by George & Capp (1), the deficiencies of which are identified.

Abstract In the present work, an important basic flow phenomena, the natural convection induced flow, is studied numerically. Three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations along with the temperature equation are solved on the basis of finite difference method. Generalized coordinate system is used so that sufficient grid resolution could be achieved in the body surface boundary layer region. Differential terms with respect to time are approximated by forward differences, diffusions terms are approximated by the implicit Euler form, convection terms in the Navier-Stokes equations are approximated by the third order upwind difference scheme. The heat flux at the body surface of heater is specified. The results of calculation showed a satisfactory agreement with the measured data and led to a good understanding of the overall flow and thermal behavior inside electronic equipment cabinet model which is very difficult, if not impossible, to gather by experiment.
