Abstract

AbstractA comprehensive numerical study has been conducted to investigate two‐dimensional, steady heat transfer of natural convection in a divided enclosure of high aspect ratio. The vertical walls of the enclosure are maintained at different temperatures, while the horizontal walls are adiabatics. A numerical hybrid scheme with lattice Boltzmann for fluid velocity and finite difference for the temperature is adopted. Parametric studies of the effects of aspect ratio, number and length of partitions attached to the cold wall of the enclosure on heat transfer and fluid flow have been performed.
