Book Description
Natural convection is a phenomenon occurs when heat is transferred to a fluid, which raises its temperature and decreases its density and consequently makes it flows upward. This book is a complete tutorial on how to simulate this kind of phenomenon using ANSYS Fluent 19.2. This is applied to a simple application of cooling a small surface using a heat sink. The tutorial starts with creating the 3D domain itself inside ANSYS DesignModeler, then discretizing it (Meshing) in ANSYS Meshing application. After that, the model is defined in Fluent with the appropriate boundary conditions. Finally, the output data is processed in Fluent to see the resulting flow around the heat sink and the temperature distribution in both the fluid and the heat sink itself.This a tutorial for the complete steps required to complete this kind of simulation. It is presented in the form of high-resolution screenshots of the applications' windows which are preceded by a textual description of the steps. Also, some of these screenshots are followed by an explanation of the different choices when seen appropriate.

Book Description
Focusing on heat transfer in porous media, this book covers recent advances in nano and macro’ scales. Apart from introducing heat flux bifurcation and splitting within porous media, it highlights two-phase flow, nanofluids, wicking, and convection in bi-disperse porous media. New methods in modeling heat and transport in porous media, such as pore-scale analysis and Lattice–Boltzmann methods, are introduced. The book covers related engineering applications, such as enhanced geothermal systems, porous burners, solar systems, transpiration cooling in aerospace, heat transfer enhancement and electronic cooling, drying and soil evaporation, foam heat exchangers, and polymer-electrolyte fuel cells.

Book Description
This textbook explores both the theoretical foundation of the Finite Volume Method (FVM) and its applications in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Readers will discover a thorough explanation of the FVM numerics and algorithms used for the simulation of incompressible and compressible fluid flows, along with a detailed examination of the components needed for the development of a collocated unstructured pressure-based CFD solver. Two particular CFD codes are explored. The first is uFVM, a three-dimensional unstructured pressure-based finite volume academic CFD code, implemented within Matlab. The second is OpenFOAM®, an open source framework used in the development of a range of CFD programs for the simulation of industrial scale flow problems. With over 220 figures, numerous examples and more than one hundred exercise on FVM numerics, programming, and applications, this textbook is suitable for use in an introductory course on the FVM, in an advanced course on numerics, and as a reference for CFD programmers and researchers.
