Natural convection in a square cavity with partially active vertical walls: Time-periodic boundary condition

A numerical study of transient natural convection in a square cavity with partly thermally active side walls is introduced. The thermally active regions of the side walls are periodic in time. Top and bottom of the cavity are adiabatic. Nine different positions of the thermally active zones are cons...
