Numerical simulation of double-diffusive mixed convection in an enclosure filled with nanofluid using Bejan’s heatlines and masslines

In this study, double-diffusive mixed convection of temperature-dependent alumina-water nanofluid in a lid-driven square enclosure is numerically investigated. The governing equations are discretized using finite volume method and solved by SIMPLER algorithm. The temperature and concentration of the...
