Optimal position of square cylinder vortex generator in channel is not a function of ordinate only – A heat transfer and optimization study

Wall heat transfer enhancement of a channel by introducing an adiabatic square cylinder as a vortex generator is investigated numerically and reported. An open-source computational fluid dynamics toolbox, OpenFOAM is used for the present numerical investigation where a base solver icoFOAM is modifie...
