| Summary: | The present work is dedicated to the three-dimensional numerical study of mixed convection heat transfer, taking place within a ventilated cavity (of shape L) crossed by Cu-water nanofluid. The enclosure is subjected to the action of a magnetic field. The ventilation is assured by two openings of the same size. The cold flow enters by an opening practiced at the top of the left wall, and exits by another opening practiced at the bottom of the right vertical wall. All the cavity walls are maintained at the same temperature, superior to that of the entering flow, except the side walls which are considered as adiabatic. The control parameters are: the Reynolds number and the Hartmann number as well as the nanoparticles volume fraction. |
