Heat and Fluid Flow in Solvothermal Autoclave for Single-Crystal Growth Process

We report and discuss an experiment and numerical simulation of heat transfer by natural convection inside an autoclave for the solvothermal growth of bulk crystalline GaN. The inner diameter and height of the autoclave were φ 20 and 335 mm, respectively. When the bottom heater of the autocl...
