✦ Synopsis

This paper presents laminar and turbulent mixed convection solutions of a driven cavity flow using the finite element method. For the laminar flow, distributions of velocity and temperature with and without the effect of buoyancy force are presented and compared. For the turbulent flow, governing partial differential equations of the thermal turbulence two-equation model and kinetic turbulence two-equation model are used. Corresponding results such as kinetic eddy difisivity, kinetic eddy energy, thermal eddy energy and their dissipations are presented.

## Abstract An explicit finite element method was used to predict a natural convection flow in an enclosed cavity. The problem considered was a differentially heated, tall (8:1), rectangular cavity with a Rayleigh number of 3.4 Γ— 105 and Prandtl number of 0.71. The incompressible Navier–Stokes equa

Multigrid and iterative methods are used to reduce the solution time of the matrix equations which arise from the finite element (FE) discretisation of the time-independent equations of motion of the incompressible fluid in turbulent motion. Incompressible flow is solved by using the method of reduc
