A computational code based on the SIMPLE-C algorithm is used for the solution of the system of the mass, momentum, and energy transfer governing equations. Simulations are performed for a complete range of heater size, for Rayleigh numbers based on the height of the cavity ranging from 10~3to 10~6, and for height-to-width aspect ratios of the cavity spanning from 0.25 to 4. It is found that the heat transfer rate increases with increasing the heater size and the Rayleigh number, while it decreases with increasing the aspect ratio of the cavity. Dimensionless heat transfer correlations are also proposed.展开更多

A computational code based on the SIMPLE-C algorithm is used for the solution of the system of the mass, momentum and energy transfer governing equations. Simulations are performed for height-to-width aspect ratios of the enclosure from 0.25 to 8, Rayleigh numbers based on the length of the heated and cooled walls from 10~2 to 10~7, and tilting angles of the enclosure from 0° to 75°. The existence of an optimal tilting angle is confirmed for any investigated configuration, at a location that increases as the Rayleigh number is decreased, and the height-to-width aspect ratio of the cavity are increased, unless the value of the Rayleigh number is that corresponding to the onset of convection or just higher. Dimensionless correlating equations are developed to predict the optimal tilting angle and the heat transfer performance of the enclosure.展开更多
