Removal of Contaminant Effectiveness in Cavity Channel Flow with Different Heated Wall Position

Abstract

Numerical simulation on removal of contaminated cavity in channel was done for various Richardson number and at three different heated wall inside square cavity. Constrained interpolated profile method (CIP) was used to solve advection part of Navier-Stokes equation while non-advection part was solved by using finite central difference. The contaminant has same properties as the fluid and very small so that the particle can be treated without affected the fluid flow. Simulations shows that heated right wall produced the highest removal process and heated left wall will removed the fewest of contaminant from cavity.
