摘要：
The present numerical study deals with mixed convection in a square lid-driven cavity partially heated from below and filled with water-base nanofluid containing various volume fractions of Cu. Ag, Al2O3 and TiO2. Finite difference method was employed to solve the dimensionless governing equations of the problem. The effects of governing parameters, namely. Reynolds number, solid volume fraction, different values of the heat source length and different locations of the heat source on the streamlines and isotherms contours as well as Nusselt number and average Nusselt number along the heat source were considered. The present results are validated by favorable comparisons with previously published results. The results of the problem are presented in graphical and tabular forms and discussed.
