Simulation of unsteady heat and mass transport with heatline and massline in a partially heated open cavity

A computational work is performed to investigate the transient heat and mass transfer inside a ventilated enclosure. The enclosure has two ventilation ports as inlet and outlet. Three different configurations are tested according to location of outlet ports while location of inlet port is fixed. In...
