Insight into the study of natural convection heat transfer mechanisms in a square cavity via finite volume method.

A computer model of heat transmission in a square cavity was created in order to have a better understanding of the consequences. Temperature differences between the top and bottom walls are what cause convection, whereas the remaining left and right walls remain adiabatic and do not contribute to the process (unheated). In order to provide an accurate estimate of the two-dimensional steady flow inside a square cavity, a novel finite volume (FV) method that incorporates adaptive upwind convection is applied. Due to natural convection's widespread use in the industrial sector, a significant amount of research has been conducted on the topic of how its usage affects the rate of heat transfer in enclosed areas. In a square cavity, the equations for the mass balance, momentum balance, and energy balance of the system are studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
