Abstract

In this work, the thermal behavior of a turbulent forced-convection flow of air in a rectangular cross section channel with attached W-shaped obstacles is investigated. The continuity, momentum and energy equations employed to control the heat and velocity in the computational domain. The turbulence model of k-ε is employed to simulate the turbulence effects. The finite volume method with SIMPLE algorithm is employed as the solution method. The results are reported temperature, local and average Nusselt numbers, and mean velocity contours. The subject is relevant and important for industrial applications.
