| Summary: | Free convection flow is present and significant in various engineering
circumstances, such as the design of heat exchangers, nuclear reactors, and many
chemical processes. It is also important in the application of cooling equipment. In
this project, a two-dimensional numerical model is formulated to simulate the natural
convection of air between two parallel plates using a computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) code. Several different situations are modeled to observe the effects on the
natural convection flow. |
