The Mathematical Model

The mathematical model based on system of momentum and energy equations for free convection flow along a vertical surface in porous media under boundary conditions of the third sort is solved analytically using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. The region of validity for boundary layer model and expansions for stream function and temperature with parameter of perturbations were defined. The dependence of characteristic flow from governing dimensionless parameters and was analyzed numerically. The influence of viscous and convective terms of momentum equation in the proposed mathematical model significantly increases the rate of heat transfer on plate in porous media in comparison with Darsy flow model.

Natural convection in cavities is an interesting subject for many researchers. Especially, in recent years, the number of articles written in this regard has grown enormously. This work provides a review of recent natural convection studies. At first, experimental studies were reviewed and, then, numerical studies were examined. Then, the articles were classified based on effective parameters. In each section, numerical studies were examined the parameters added to the cavity such as magnetic forces, fin, porous media and cavity angles. Moreover, studies on non-rectangular cavities were investigated. Free convection in enclosures depends more on the fluid velocity relative to the forced convection, leading to the opposite effect of some parameters that should essentially enhance rate of heat transfer. Nanoparticle addition, magnetic fields, fins, and porous media may increase forced convection. However, they can reduce free convection due to the reduction in fluid velocity. Thus, these parameters need more precision and sometimes need the optimization of effective parameters.
