Abstract
In this numerical study, natural convection heat transfer in a square cavity with a heated plate built-in vertically and horizontally was investigated. In order to obtain finite difference equations, transport and energy equations were integrated based a finite control volume with non-staggered grid arrangement. The discretized equations were solved with TDMA using SIMPLEM algorithm iteratively. The study was performed for different Rayleigh number values ranging from 10 4 to 10 6 and for different aspect ratios and position of heated plate. Air was chosen as a working fluid (Pr=0.71). The effect of the position and aspect ratio of heated plate on heat transfer and flow were addressed
