    Notes: Abstract A high-resolution, finite-difference numerical study is carried out of three-dimensional unsteady periodic natural convection of air in a cubical enclosure at the Rayleigh number of 8.5×106. The enclosure is subjected to differential heating at the two vertical side walls. The other vertical walls are insulated. A linear temperature profile is specified at the thermally-conducting horizontal walls. Flow details in the three-dimensional field are captured by elaborate post-processing of the computational results, for which the state-of-the-art numerical visualization techniques are utilized. The three-dimensionality of the mean flow fields is observed to be confined into narrow regions near the end walls. The time-dependent solutions clearly indicate the periodic nature of the flow. The oscillation frequency is in close agreement with the previous experimental measurements reported in the literature.

    Notes: A relatively novel formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations is used for obtaining solutions of two dimensional incompressible fluid flow and convective heat transfer problems. A vorticity transport equation along with two Poisson equations for the velocity components and the energy equation are solved by a finite difference scheme. A coupled solution procedure is used for solving simultaneously the dependent variables along a line, using a block tridiagonal matrix algorithm. The formulation is found to be stable and has features that may be desirable for solving a wide variety of flow and heat transfer problems.

    Notes: Numerical computations are performed on the fully developed flow and heat transfer in a periodically ribbed channel with oscillatory throughflow. A uniform heat flux is imposed at the lower plate of the channel. An externally sustained pressure gradient varies sinusoidally in time. A low-turbulent-Reynolds-number version of the k-∊ two-equation model of turbulence is invoked, together with a preferential dissipation modification, to predict the complex turbulent flow field. Computed results indicate that much heat transfer enhancement is expected by increasing the Womersley number, which measures the relative strength of the oscillatory motion to the viscous effects.

    Notes: A high-resolution, finite difference numerical study is reported on three-dimensional natural convection of air in a differentially heated cubical enclosure over an extensive range of Rayleigh number from 103 to 1010. The maximum number of grid points is 122 × 62 × 62. Solutions to the primitive variable formulation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes and energy equations are acquired by a control-volume-based procedure together with a higher-order upwind-differencing technique. The field characteristics at large-time limits are examined in detail by state-of-the-art numerical visualizations of the three-dimensional results. The emergence of the well-defined boundary layers and the interior core at high Rayleigh numbers is captured by elaborate numerical visualizations. Both the similarities and discrepancies between the three- and two-dimensional computations are pointed out. These emphasize the need for three-dimensional calculations to accurately determine the flow characteristics and heat transfer properties in realistic, high-Rayleigh-number situations.
