Opis
Izvleček:The main purpose of this work is to present the use of BEM for analyzing the convective flow in a tall porous enclosure heated from one side by using the Brinkman-Forcheimer momentim equation (Forcheimer model) in order to investigate the effect of Forcheimer's inertia term on the global heat transfer through the cavity. Namely, the effect this term has on the engineering parameters of a fluid saturated porous medium is known to be minimal, but has not been confirmed by BEM or any of its extensions as yet. The numerical solution of the problem (velocity, vorticity, temperature rates of heat transfer) is obtained for different Rayleigh and Darcy numbers. The rsults were compared with the Brinkman extended Darcy momentum equation (Brinkman Model).
