Natural convection of air in a square cavity: A bench mark numerical solution

Natural convection of air in a square cavity: A bench mark numerical solution Details are given of the computational method used to obtain an accurate solution of the equations describing two‐dimensional natural convection in a square cavity with differentially heated side walls. Second‐order, central difference approximations were used. Mesh refnement and extrapolation led to solutions for 103⩽Ra⩽10 6 which are believed to be accurate to better than 1 per cent at the highest Rayleigh number and down to one‐tenth of that at the lowest value. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids Wiley

Abstract

Details are given of the computational method used to obtain an accurate solution of the equations describing two‐dimensional natural convection in a square cavity with differentially heated side walls. Second‐order, central difference approximations were used. Mesh refnement and extrapolation led to solutions for 103⩽Ra⩽10 6 which are believed to be accurate to better than 1 per cent at the highest Rayleigh number and down to one‐tenth of that at the lowest value.
