Natural Convection Flow of a Nanofluid in an Inclined Square Enclosure Partially Filled with a Porous Medium

Abstract This work analyses free convection flow of a nanofluid in an inclined square enclosure consisting of a porous layer and a nanofluid layer using the finite difference methodology. Sinusoidal temperature boundary conditions are imposed on the two opposing vertical walls. Nanofluids with water...
