Opposing mixed convection, parallelogram cavity, horizontal channelAbstract
In this work, a numerical simulation was used to investigate the impact that the length and positioning of the heat source had on the mixed convection opposing flow that occurred within the horizontal channel that included an open parallelogram cavity. When the wall being heated is facing away from the direction of the incoming force. Different placements of the heat source along the cavity's sidewalls were explored, with the length of the heat source set at (ε) (0.25<ε<1). The cool, steady-speed air came in through the sides of the canal. All other walls are adiabatic, while the vertical walls on the inflow and outflow sides are isothermal. The governing equations were solved using the finite element technique. For several different values of the Richardson number (Ri=0.1-100), we estimated the flow and heat fields. While the Prandtl number is held at 0.71 and the Reynolds number is maintained at 100. The average Nusselt values, as well as the findings of the flow and temperature fields, were reported. The findings demonstrate that both the Richardson number (Ri) and the distance from the heat source (ε) positively affect the heat transfer rate. It was also determined that for all Richardson numbers, the highest average Nusselt number is attained at the higher portion of the right wall of the hollow.
