Numerical study of mixed convection and entropy generation of Water-Ag nanofluid filled semi-elliptic lid-driven cavity

In this study, laminar mixed convection of water/Ag nanofluid with volume fraction of nanoparticles φ = 0, 2, 4, and 6% and Grashof numbers Gr = 50,000, 150,000, 250,000 and 400,000 and Richardson numbers Ri = 0.1, 1, and 10 are simulated using finite volume method. Obtained results indicate that ad...
