The turbulent flow around a square cylinder at Reynolds number 22, 000 (based on the
cylinder diameter and the inflow velocity) is studied by means of direct numerical simulation …

The industrial release of submicron aerosol particles at workplace could cause undue health
effect on workers. To effectively capture and remove airborne particles, we need to study the …

In this study, we investigate the impact of spatial temperature modulation on vertical
convection (VC) and analyze how the efficiency of heat transfer varies with modulation …

A fully-conservative discretization is presented in this paper. The same principles followed
by Verstappen and Veldman (2003)[3] are generalized for unstructured meshes. Here, a …

A systematic numerical study of three-dimensional natural convection of air in a differentially
heated cubical cavity with Rayleigh number (Ra) up to 10 10 is performed by using the …

In this study, a three-dimensional numerical simulation of the natural convection in a long
rectangular enclosure containing a sinusoidal cylinder was conducted. The sinusoidal …

A set of direct numerical simulations of a differentially heated cavity of aspect ratio 4 with
adiabatic horizontal walls is presented. The five configurations selected here (Rayleigh …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a reliable tool for indoor environmental applications.
However, accurate CFD simulations require large computational resources, whereas …

Turbulent natural convection with and without radiation transfer in two-dimensional (2D) and
three-dimensional (3D) air-filled differentially heated cavities is numerically investigated …

Various fundamental studies based on a turbulent duct flow have gained popularity
