Abstract

The present work reports a numerical simulation of mixed convection in an inclined square cavity. The vertical sidewalls are assumed to have a nonuniform temperature distribution. The finite volume method is used to solve dimensionless governing equations. Simulations are performed for different Richardson numbers, amplitude ratios, phase deviations, and cavity inclination angles. The results are presented graphically. The mean heat transfer significantly increases in the buoyancy-dominated mode on increasing cavity inclination angle if both walls have identical heating and cooling zones.
