This work aims to propose a simplified formulation of the similarity solution for the boundary
layers problem occurring along a vertical heated flat plate under buoyancy effect. A new …

Since the appearance of the first edition of'Energy Simulation in Building Design', the use of
computer-based appraisal tools to solve energy design problems within buildings has grown …

Accurate solutions to the equations of natural convection in a square 2-D differentially
heated cavity with adiabatic top and bottom walls are given for values of Ra up to 10 8 …

Dynamic simulation of a double-skin façade (DSF) with computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
can be challenging due to the lack of validated models and benchmarking datasets …

This new edition updated the material by expanding coverage of certain topics, adding new
examples and problems, removing outdated material, and adding a computer disk, which …

Free convective flow in a square cavity at Ra= 106 and Pr= 0.71 is considered using the
lattice-Boltzmann discretization scheme. This scheme is a new type of simulation method for …

A set of complete two-and three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS) in a
differentially heated air-filled cavity of aspect ratio 4 with adiabatic horizontal walls is …

Abstract The application of Laser Induced Fluorescence (LIF) for temperature measurements
in water using a Nd: YAG laser is investigated. A natural convection problem is used to test …

Two-dimensional numerical simulations of the natural convection flow of air in a differentially
heated, inclined square cavity were performed for both laminar and turbulent flows. The …

As the majority of people spend most of their time indoors and often share the same space,
knowledge and prediction of the indoor climate conditions is important to optimise the indoor …
