Lid-Driven and Inclined Square Cavity Filled With a Nanofluid: Optimum Heat Transfer

This paper reports a numerical study on mixed convection within a square enclosure, filled with a mixture of water and Cu (or Ag) nanoparticles. It is assumed that the temperature difference driving the convection comes from the side moving walls, when both horizontal walls are kept insulated. In or...
