Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis of Horizontal Heated Plate for Natural Convection

Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 4

Abstract

Free or natural convection heat transfer is predominant in many engineering applications such as cooling of electronic equipment, pollution, materials processing, energy systems, and safety in thermal processes and geophysical flows. The present work discusses about the result of a computational fluid dynamics study of Steady, Laminar, Free convection heat transfer in a horizontal plate facing upwards in which two walls are adiabatic and other two ends are open to the ambient .The aim is to simulate the flow using appropriate CFD tools and compare the results with available experimental data. The CFD tool used here is ANSYS-FLUENT
