A Numerical Study on Entropy Generation in Two-Dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard Convection at Different Prandtl Number

Entropy generation in two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard convection at different Prandtl number (Pr) are investigated in the present paper by using the lattice Boltzmann Method. The major concern of the present paper is to explore the effects of Pr on the detailed information of local distributions of...
