Natural convection and entropy generation

摘要

A natural Convection in a square cavity finds considerableinterest in thermal engineering applications. Consequently, in ofentropy generation concept enables to identify the optimum conditionsfor its practical application. Consequently, in the present study,natural convection in a square cavity with differential top andbottom wall temperatures is investigated. A numerical scheme using hecontrol volume approach is introduced when discretizing the governingflow and energy equations.
