Abstract
The heat transfer is assumed to take place in a porous medium under the influence of two sources such as a whole surface applied with hot temperature and another small strip of heating element being kept at left side of the cavity. The governing equations are derived from the basic principle of Darcy flow. The impact of the heating strip length is investigated with respect to its position at x = 0.25L of the cavity with L being the length of cavity. Finite element method is used to form a set of equations in algebraic form that can be solved easily with the help of a computer code. The solution is set with proper tolerance limit to get accurate results. The results indicate that the position of element has impact on the heat transfer from hot to cold surface.
