Numerical Investigation of Heat Transfer with Natural Convection in a Regularly Heated Elliptical Cylinder Submerged in a Square Fence Loaded With a Nanofluid

Abstract

During this first paper, numerical research from the natural convection of steady-state laminar heat transfer into a horizontal ring within a heated internal elliptical surface and a cold external square surface is presented. A Cu - water nanofluid, traverses this annular space. For different thermal Rayleigh numbers varying from 103 to 2.5x105 and different volume fractions from the nanoparticles. The arrangement from equations directing the problem was resolved numerically with the Fluent computational language founded on the finite volume approach. Based approaching the Boussinesq approach. The interior and exterior surfaces from the two cylinders are maintained at a fixed temperature. We investigated the impacts of various thermal Rayleigh numbers, the volume fraction from the nanoparticles, and the effect of the eccentricity of the internal cylinder on the natural convection. The results are shown within the figure of isocurrents, isotherms, and mean and local Nusselt numbers. The objective of this investigation is to examine the impact of different parameters on the heat transfer flow.
