DISPLAY
The problem considered is laminar free convection of air
between a pair of parallel, vertically-mounted flat plates of
length H. These plates are maintained either at uniform
heat fluxes (UHF) qw or uniform wall temperatures (UWT) tw.
The solution domain has one plane of symmetry at the centre
of the gap B between the two plates. The external pressure
is the same at both the top and bottom of the plate, so the
flow is driven entirely by buoyancy forces.
The Boussinesq assumption is made in the simulations, and the
flow is characterised by the Grashof number GrB and the
gap-to-length ratio B/H.
The solution domain comprises the gap between the
two channel plates, as well as the free environment upstream
and downstream of the channel.
For economy, the solution domain may be restricted to the gap
alone, although this approach is less accurate for developing
flow because of the empirical representation of total pressure
losses at the channel inlet and outlet.
The practical application of free convection in vertical
channels may be found in the electronics and telecommunications
industry.
The flow is fully developed if GrB*(B/H) < 1 for a UWT
condition, and when GrB*(B/H) < 100 for a UHF condition (see
Aung, Int.J. Heat Mass Transfer, Vol.15,p1577, 1972).
Developing flow has been considered by Aung et al, Int.J.Heat
Mass Transfer, Vol.15, p2293, 1972 & Morrone et al, Int.J.Heat
Mass Transfer, Vol.40, No.5, p993, 1997).
The dimensionless equations solved are:
dW/dZ + dV/dY = 0 ;
W*dZ/dZ + V*dV/dY = d/dY(dW/dY) + d/dZ(dW/dZ)
- dP/DZ + GrB*T
W*dT/dZ + V*dT/dY = (1./Pr)*d/dY(dT/dY)
+ (1./Pr)*d/dZ(dT/dZ)
where
Z = z/B ; Y = y/B ; W = w*B/enul ; V = v*B/enul
P = (p-p,ref)*(B**2)/(rho*enul**2)
T = k*(t-tref)/(qw*B) ; Pr = rho*enul*cp/k
GrB = g*beta*qw*B**4/(k*enul**2)
This Q1 may be used to run 6 cases which are documented in
the literature. The results are summarised below in terms of
the dimensionless volumetric flow rate PSI(=wbulk*B/enul):
