Study of two-dimensional laminar flow in a polar cavity by Ansys Fluent

Study of 2-D cavity flow becomes more popular among Engineering and Science researchers. Flow investigation using experimental and analytical method, numerical methods and software (Ansys Fluent) to study the physical properties of the flow inside the cavity are very common. For computation simplici...
