In this study, predictions of buoyancy-assisted ¯ow reversal and convective heat transfer in the entrance region of a vertical rectangular duct are reported for the ®rst time. In line with the current trend toward the use of computationally ecient numerical methods, the present study is based on the

## Abstract In this paper, combined convective heat transfer and nanofluids flow characteristics in a vertical rectangular duct are numerically investigated. This investigation covers Rayleigh numbers in the range of 2 × 10^6^ ≤ __Ra__ ≤ 2 × 10^7^ and Reynolds numbers in the range of 200 ≤ __Re__ ≤
In a recent experimental study of reaction rates measured in a rectangular duct with a reaction of arbitrary order occurring on one wall, the results were analyzed in terms of an infinite parallel plate duct. The subject of this paper is the determination of the requirements necessary to treat a rec
Free convection-dominated melting of a phase change material in a rectangular cavity with an isothermally heated vertical wall is simulated using the streamline upwind/Petrov±Galerkin ®nite element technique in combination with a ®xed-grid primitive variable method. The enthalpy±porosity model is em
## Abstract An approximate analysis is given for miscible displacement in vertical tubes when density differences between the displaced and displacing fluids give rise to buoyancy forces which affect the velocity distribution significantly. The results of this analysis agree with the available expe
