Abstract This paper investigates numerically the problem of convective heat transfer and entropy generation by two adiabatic obstacles positioned inside a
square cavity heated at the left wall and cooled on the right wall while horizontal walls are adiabatic. The inclination angle of the cavity orientation
investigated are 30, 60 and 90 degrees. Rayleigh numbers ranging from 103
to 106 were calculated for two vertical obstacles. The method of Galerkin
finite element was employed to solve the conservation equations of mass, momentum and energy. The cavity is assumed to be filled with air with
Prandtl number of 0.71. It was observed… More >
