Numerical study of three-dimensional natural convection and entropy generation in a cubical cavity with partially active vertical walls

Natural convection and entropy generation due to the heat transfer and fluid friction irreversibilities in a three-dimensional cubical cavity with partially heated and cooled vertical walls has been investigated numerically using the finite volume method. Four different arrangements of partially act...
