Aided Mixed Convection past a Heated Square Cylinder at Low Blockage Ratio

This paper investigates numerically the flow and heat transfer in air (Pr=0.71) by mixed convection past a heated square cylinder under aiding buoyancy effect in a confined channel. The numerical simulations are performed in the range of parameters 20≤Re≤45 and 1.61x103≤Gr≤6.33x103 for a fixed blo...
