Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

Consideration is given to a numerical solution of the problem of a natural-connective gas flow exposed to a heat source in a two-dimensional closed rectangular cavity with a vertical partition placed in it. Investigation is made of the influence of relative cavity extension, relative height of the partition and its position on the upper or lower cavity wall on the flow structure.
