Numerical Study of Natural Convection Heat Transfer in a Porous Annulus Filled with a Cu-Nanofluid

Natural convection heat transfer in a porous annulus filled with a Cu nanofluid has been investigated numerically. The Darcy–Brinkman and the energy transport equations are employed to describe the nanofluid motion and the heat transfer in the porous medium. Numerical results including the isotherms...
