Three-dimensional Analysis of Mixed Convection in a Differentially Heated Lid-driven Cubic Enclosure

Nasreddine Benkacem, Nader Ben Cheikh and Brahim Ben Beya

To study the intlicate three-dimensional flow structures and the companion heat transfer rates in a differentially heated lid-driven cubic cavity, a numerical methodology based on the finite volume method and a full multigrid acceleration is utilized in this note. The four remaining walls fowling the cubic cavity are adiabatic. The working fluid is air so the Prandtl number equates to 031. Numerical solutions are generated for representative combinations of the controlling Reynolds number inside 100
