Numerical simulation with a Reynolds stress turbulence model of flow and heat transfer in rectangular cavities with different aspect ratios

The effect of the cavity aspect ratio on the flow and heat transfer characteristics is investigated numerically in this paper. The cavity is part of the channel’s lower wall heated at a uniform temperature. The approach is based on the low Reynolds Stress-omega turbulence model. The study is perform...
