Abstract
The present short communication shows an exact solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in the case of a channel filled with gas and with temperature contrast between the boundaries. This exact solution is then compared with the result of a numerical simulation made using a numerical code widely used in fire safety engineering. It shows the ability of the code to reproduce this highly stratified flow. Nusselt numbers are then estimated.
