Turbulent free convection in a porous square cavity using the thermal equilibirum model
چکیده انگلیسی
This work investigates the influence of porosity and thermal conductivity ratio on the Nusselt number of a cavity filed with a fluid saturated porous substrate. The flow regime considered intra-pore turbulence and a macroscopic k-ε model was applied. Heat transfer across the cavity assumed the hypothesis of thermal equilibrium between the solid and the fluid phases. Transport equations were discretized using the control-volume method and the system of algebraic equations was relaxed via the SIMPLE algorithm. Results showed that when using the one energy equation model under the turbulent regime, simulated with a High Reynolds turbulence model, the cavity Nusselt number is reduced for higher values of the ratio ks/kf as well as when the material porosity is increased. In both cases, conduction thorough the solid material becomes of a greater importance when compared with the overall transport that includes both convection and conduction mechanisms across the medium.
