Study of Natural Convection in Rectangular Enclosure Varying Wall-Temperature

This research is aimed to analyze the behavior of natural convection in the rectangular enclosure by varying wall temperature and using different types of fluid such as liquid metals, gasses, water and oil. In order to predict the behavior, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation tool ANSYS Fl...
