The aim of the present study is to examine the thermal performance of a power-law fluid for a discretely heated lid-driven enclosure. This numerical outcome can determine the ideal heat transfer medium for a given design, thus reducing unnecessary expenditures on experiments. The chamber's side wall...

This study examines the conjugate MHD free convection in an L-shaped chamber with a thick fin attached to one of its cold walls. The chamber's left and bottom parts have hot walls, whereas the ambient condition is maintained at the upper-right sides of the L-shaped chamber. A heat-conducting solid r...
