Abstract

Abstract The finite element solutions of Navier‐Stokes and energy equations for steady laminar flow and heat transfer around square prisms, with attack angles of 0° and 45° have been obtained for a gas of Pr=0.7. The variations of surface shear stress, local pressure and Nusselt number are obtained over the entire prism surface including the zone beyond the point of separation. The predicted values of drag coefficients, the location of. separation, the average Nusselt number and the plots of velocity flow fields and isotherms are also presented. The trend of the present numerical results seems reasonable.
