Abstract

In this study, natural convection in a L-shaped enclosure was investigated numerically. The left hand side of enclosure is cooler than the right hand side of wall. Bottom and top walls are insulated. Governing equaitons for natural convection have been integrated over a finite control volume to obtain finite difference equations. For the solution a computer program was developed using SIMPLEM algorithm was used. Calculations were performed in the range of 10 4
