چکیده
In the present research, free convection heat transfer from isothermal concave and convex body shapes is studied numerically. The body shapes investigated here, are bi-sphere, cylinder, prolate and cylinder with hemispherical ends; besides, they have the same height over width (H/D = ۲). A Numerical simulation is implemented to obtain heat transfer and fluid flow from all of the geometries in a wide range of Rayleigh numbers. The results show that flatness, concavity and smoothness have major effects on estimation of free convection heat transfer. As the total surface heat transfer area changed by altering the geometry, the local Nusselt number are compared for these body shapes; as well; it shows that concave surfaces has adverse influence on transferring heat. In addition, the current results reveal the average Nusselt numbers based on square surface area are not affected by the geometries for the laminar range of Rayleigh numbers. Besides, “incompressible ideal gas model” is used for the variation of density in free convection heat transfer. This model has the capability to be utilized in the cases with high temperature differences between the fluid and the bodies’ surfaces.کلیدواژه ها
