Week 7 - Mid-term Project - Natural Convection

Introduction: natural convection happend due to the density difference of the fluid over the hot equipment. This density difference leads to fluid circulation wherein the hot air rises above and the cold air settels on the hot surface. Bousennesq approximation is pretty accurate solver to model this behaviour in the natural convection.

The geometry is created in accordance to the dimentions given in the problem statement.

Geometry:

Meshing:

As assembly mkeshing gives us the ability to create non-conformal meshing with slack which reduces the mesh bleeding into the cabinet.

Results:

Particle tracking with speed

Speed:

Temperature

Vector:

Conclusion:

As we can see the natural convection with radiation enabled gives propoer results for the geometry and the material used. Hence, the simulation is a success.
