Numerical Simulation of Hydrothermal Autoclave for Single-Crystal Growth Process

Numerical simulation of the hydrothermal process for growing two-inch bulk single crystals of ZnO has been done. The autoclave is assumed to be axisymmetric. The heat transfer by natural convection is discussed for flat and funnel-shaped baffles. The funnel-shaped baffle leads to a significant incre...
