An Analytical Model for Natural Convection in a Rectangular Enclosure with Differentially Heated Vertical Walls

This paper proposes an analytical model for natural convection in a closed rectangular enclosure filled by a fluid, with imposed heat fluxes at the vertical walls and adiabatic horizontal walls. The analytical model offers a simplified, but easy to handle, description of the temperature and velocity...
