Natural convection in a porous cavity with spatial sidewall temperature variation. (English)
[J] Int. J. Numer. Methods Heat Fluid Flow 15, No. 5-6, 555-566 (2005). ISSN 0961-5539

Summary: To study the natural convention in a square porous cavity induced by heating one of the sidewalls and the other sidewall is cooled, while the horizontal walls are adiabatic. The heated wall is assumed to have spatial sinusoidal temperature variations about a constant mean value. The Darcy model is used in the mathematical modeling of the natural convection in porous cavity. A finite volume method based on QUICK scheme is used to solve numerically the non-dimensional governing equations.
