چکیده
A validated CFD by ANSYS model is built for a melting process of PCM (gallium), inside rectangular enclosure heated from one side and cooled another. This was carried out enabling the solidification in addition energy ANSYS. Regression front results utilized integrated numerical approach MATLAB to generate constants Nusselt correlations effective conductivity during different stages that can be used define locations temperature at grid locations. In addition, effect wall aspect ratio variation on have been simulated analyzed details. Enthalpy method conduction equations 2-D were describe predicted share convection process, with trial error assuming automatically. Accordingly, simple conservative time way same time, are mainly indicating heat transfer affects behavior which coherence previous experimental analytical literature. Also, investigated assure more ratio, better homogeneity.

Analytical Modeling of Natural Convection in Concentric Spherical Enclosures
A modeling procedure is developed for natural convection heat transfer from an isothermal heated sphere located at the center of an isothermal, cooled, sphericalshaped enclosure. The model is based on the linear superposition of conduction and convection solutions, where the convective component is determined based on a combination of two limiting cases, laminar boundary layer convection and tr...
متن کاملNumerical study of natural convection in partially heated rectangular enclosures filled with nanofluids
Heat transfer and fluid flow due to buoyancy forces in a partially heated enclosure using nanofluids is carried out using different types of nanoparticles. The flush mounted heater is located to the left vertical wall with a finite length. The temperature of the right vertical wall is lower than that of heater while other walls are insulated. The finite volume technique is used to solve the gov...
متن کاملA Dimensionless Solution to Radiation and Turbulent Natural Convection in Square and Rectangular Enclosures
The effects of natural convection with and without the interaction of surface radiation in square and rectangular enclosures have been studied, numerically and theoretically. The analyses were carried out over a wide range of enclosure aspect ratios ranging from 0.0625 to 16, including square enclosures in sizes from 40cm to 240cm, with cold wall temperatures ranging from 283 to 373 K, and hot ...
متن کاملEnhancement of Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Annular Enclosures
Natural convection heat transfer was investigated experimentally in a concentric-cylinders annulus. To enhance the rate of heat transfer, pin fins were installed on the surface of the inner cylinder. Two fin arrangements were employed, namely, staggered and in-line arrangements. The length of the fins varied from 2 to 8 cm and the Rayleigh number Ra changed in the range from 5 x 105 to 5 x 106...
متن کاملConvection patterns in end-heated inclined enclosures.
The natural convection in inclined side-heated rectangular boxes with adiabatic walls is theoretically and numerically investigated. The study is focused on the characterization of the convection patterns arising at the core of the basic steady unicellular flow and covers the whole range of Prandtl numbers (0< or = Pr < or = infinity) and inclinations (from alpha=0 degrees, heated-from-below ve...
