Laminar aiding and opposing mixed convection in a vertical channel with an asymmetric discrete heating at one wall

Detailed numerical simulations are carried out for aiding/opposing mixed convection in a rectangular channel with an asymmetric discrete heating. The governing equations were solved by the finite volume method using OpenFoam® open source code. Based on streamline patterns, temperature maps, velocity...
