Natural convection in an enclosure (internal convection) is an important problem due to its
significant practical applications. In energy related applications, natural convection plays a …

The entropy generation minimization (EGM) technique is an important tool for the
optimization of the thermal systems via the analysis of the associated irreversibilities …

By a porous medium we mean a material consisting of a solid matrix with an interconnected
void. We suppose that the solid matrix is either rigid (the usual situation) or it undergoes …

The present work analyses magnetohydrodynamic natural convection heat transfer and
entropy generation in rhombic enclosures filled with Cu-water nanofluids. Numerical …

In this paper, we present a numerical investigation of natural convection heat transfer and
entropy generation for a rhombic enclosure with inclination angle, ϕ= 30°, filled with a …

The present work exhaustively examines natural convection in complex enclosure forms
such as trapezoidal, rhombic (parallelogrammic), elliptical and wavy geometries, taking into …

The natural convection in fully open parallelogrammic cavity filled with Cu–water nanofluid
and heated locally from its bottom wall is investigated numerically for the first time in the …

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze the natural convection heat transfer and
irreversibility characteristics in a quadrantal porous cavity subjected to uniform temperature …

The entropy generation characteristics for thermomagnetic convection in a porous cavity
filled with paramagnetic air in the presence of a magnetic quadrupole field are investigated …

The main objective of this study is to predict the energy transfer characteristics in an air-
saturated porous square enclosure. The energy transfer is driven by buoyancy force …
