摘要
The present numerical study reports results of three-dimensional natural convection in a rectangular box filled with a fluid-saturated heat-generating porous medium. The Brinkman-extended Darcy flow model is considered in this study. The model has been numerically simulated employing a successive accelerated replacement scheme for a wide range of parameters, that is, 100 ≤ Ra ≤ 10, 0.00001 ≤ Da ≤ 0.1, 0.1 ≤ Ay ≤ 10, and 0.1 ≤ Az ≤ 10. As Darcy number increases, maximum temperature increases and position of maximum temperature shifts downward toward the center. The effect of varying the Darcy number is more pronounced at higher Rayleigh numbers and higher aspect ratios. © 2016 by Begell House, Inc.
