Abstract

A two-dimensional steady developing fluid flow and heat transfer through periodic wavy passage (with and without baffles) will be numerically studied for a fluid with a Prandlt number of 0.7. The wavy walls will be studied for certain values of baffle length to module maximum height ratio. A representative runs will be made for different values of Reynolds number. The effect of each run on the velocity profile, streamline, and normalized temperature field will be compared to flow through a corresponding wavy walls channel without baffles. Domain disrectization will be carried out in body fitted coordinate system. The contravariant components of velocities will be used as the dependent variables. The governing equations will be solved using a finite volume technique. Fluent program is utilized to solve the problem. Grid independence study will be carried out and average Nusselt number and normalized pressure drop will be reported.
