An Experimental and Numerical Study of Mixed Convection Through Porous Medium Between Inclined Two Plates
Main Article Content
Abstract
An experimental and numerical study conducted on mixed convection through porous medium between inclined two plates , heated from below and cooled from top, an experimental contains manufacturing device and connecting thermocouples then reading temperatures for every thermocouple with inlet air velocity in the range : 5<Pe<100 , 100<Ra<650 , 0o< Φ<90o . A numerical study contains a solved of moment ,energy equations numerically with finite differences methods then ,using computer program written by Quick Basic Language to find temperatures for every point , Nu no. and then making comparisons between experimental and numerical results with error 2.5% .
